About Dean

Dean Audsley is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and anger. He also helps those facing life changes, motivation struggles and issues around addiction and ADHD.

Dean frames clients as the experts in their own story. He listens to what is important to each person and builds on their strengths. Sessions are practical and direct, focusing on what a person wants to change and small steps to make that happen.

His approach draws on client-centred ideas and mindfulness, with occasional solution-focused techniques. That means conversations often centre on the person's experience, noticing thoughts and feelings, and identifying short-term goals to try between meetings. Dean uses clear, everyday language rather than clinical jargon.

People contact him for a range of concerns beyond anger, including coping with loss, relationship stress within families, career matters and mood difficulties such as bipolar and panic. He also offers support around control issues, guilt and shame, impulsivity and isolation.

Sessions aim to map out practical strategies for managing intense feelings and reducing unhelpful patterns. Dean encourages small experiments that test what helps in everyday life. He works with each person to review progress and adjust plans as needed.

How Dean uses his approaches in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's perspective. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said and helps the person make sense of their experience. This approach helps when anger comes from feeling misunderstood or stuck.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches noticing thoughts, bodily sensations and urges without immediate reaction. It can help reduce automatic responses like snapping at others and give room to choose a different action in the moment.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dean will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels workable. Together they decide whether to lean more on listening and reflection, mindfulness practise, or short solution-focused tasks to test between sessions.

Check the current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings around work, study or caring commitments and to keep progress moving when life is busy. Some formats also allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video, which can suit quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth.
