About Dean
Dean Gaylard is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety and low self-esteem and helps them talk through what is getting in the way of daily life. He also supports those facing depression, coping with life changes and compassion fatigue.
Sessions with Dean aim to be straightforward and calm. He listens and reflects so clients can notice patterns and decide what to try next. Dean uses Client-Centred Therapy and hypnotherapy as part of his work and may introduce simple breathing or guided imagery exercises when useful.
His background includes practice with people experiencing addictions, grief, trauma and relationship concerns. He also has experience with issues such as panic attacks, ADHD, bipolar experiences, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. That breadth means he is used to helping people manage practical day-to-day problems alongside deeper emotional material.
Dean often encourages gentle meditative practices and regulation techniques to help people reduce overwhelm. He describes the therapeutic relationship as a core part of the work and offers a steady, attentive way to explore difficulties. If someone prefers, he invites questions by message before booking a session.
Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. Dean uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and prospective clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.
How his approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client can find their own solutions. It helps with anxiety, low self-esteem and coping with life changes by offering a steady, non-directive way to explore feelings and choices.Hypnotherapy involves guided relaxation and imagery to access focused attention and suggestion. It can be useful for stress management, panic symptoms and breaking unhelpful patterns when combined with talking work.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the process. Dean will work together with each person to decide which methods suit their needs and preferences, and he adjusts techniques as progress is made.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy life and keeping appointments without travel. The original profile does not specify session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online meetings can make it easier to use guided imagery or breathing exercises within a single session and can allow more flexible scheduling around work or family commitments.
