About Dagmar
Dagmar Spencer is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and problems linked to trauma and abuse. She also supports those dealing with self‑esteem, motivation and major life changes. Dagmar speaks English and works from the United Kingdom under her BACP credential. She has four years of professional experience and aims to make the first step into therapy feel achievable.
In sessions she focuses on creating an open, non‑judgemental space where thoughts and feelings can be spoken about honestly. Her approach draws on Client‑Centered Therapy, so the conversation is shaped around the person's own priorities and pace. She also uses practical ideas from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help break unhelpful thinking patterns and from Existential Therapy to look at meaning and life direction.
Dagmar pays attention to issues often felt as loneliness or emptiness, and to complex topics such as codependency, shame and guilt. She also works with people affected by sexual assault, self‑harm and difficulties connected to autism or Asperger syndrome. The work is practical and conversational, with focus on small steps that make daily life easier.
Sessions aim to identify immediate coping strategies and clarify longer term goals. The counsellor helps people explore forgiveness, life purpose and young adult challenges without pressure or labels. Practical tools and reflective discussion are mixed to suit each person's needs.
If a reader wants to begin, they are encouraged to use the site's Start Therapy process to match and schedule a session according to availability.
How Client‑centred and CBT approaches work online
Dagmar blends Client‑Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy so conversations and practical skills both have a place. Client‑Centered Therapy focuses on following the person's lead, listening deeply and helping them make sense of their feelings. This approach is helpful when someone needs an accepting space to talk about anxiety, shame or trauma. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy offers clear strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and routines, which can reduce anxiety and lift mood over time.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and how you like to tackle problems, then decide together which methods to use. That collaborative planning helps shape whether sessions stay more reflective or more skills‑focused as needs change.
The practical benefits of online work often include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week, fewer travel demands and quicker check‑ins when needed. The profile does not list specific session formats, so check the booking details to confirm current options before scheduling. Many people find online sessions useful for maintaining momentum between appointments and for accessing regular support alongside daily commitments.
