About Dagmar
Dagmar Salamonova-Clark is a BACP accredited counsellor with 14 years of experience working in the United Kingdom. She supports people with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, addiction, trauma, eating concerns and other common problems that make daily life harder.
Dagmar uses practical talking methods alongside longer-term psychological work. Sessions often focus on recognising thought and behaviour patterns, learning new coping steps, and practising different ways of relating to others. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for clear, action-focused tools.
Her background includes roles in the NHS, university counselling services and employee assistance programmes, as well as private practice. That experience means she understands both short-term problem solving and deeper emotional work.
Dagmar speaks English, Czech and Slovak and has training that includes postgraduate diplomas in psychodynamic psychotherapy and CBT, plus postgraduate study in psychology. She also has work with ADHD practice and trauma-informed approaches.
In sessions she pays attention to patterns that link past experiences and present reactions. That can include attachment issues and relationship dynamics, as well as practical strategies for stress, sleep and managing strong emotions. People who come to her often focus on improving communication, reducing anxiety in social situations, and managing mood or addictive behaviours.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Dagmar uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as core approaches in her work. CBT focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviours to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. ACT helps people notice difficult feelings, clarify what matters to them, and take steps towards those values even when anxiety is present.She also draws on attachment-informed work to look at how past relationship patterns affect current interactions. This can help when social situations, trust or intimacy feel difficult. The therapist and client decide together which approach or combination suits the client's goals and preferences, so the method is adjusted over time rather than fixed from the start.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available formats before booking as this profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some approaches translate well to remote meetings because they include concrete exercises, homework and communication practice, which can be done between sessions to support progress.
