My name’s Dominic, and I am a fully qualified counsellor and psychotherapist with several years of clinical experience in the voluntary sector and private practice. Although my therapeutic experience is wide-ranging, covering a variety of clinical presentations and backgrounds, I have considerable experience with the LGBTQ+ community, neurodivergence, and those dealing with recurring depression and anxiety. My approach combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with the person-centred approach, and is calibrated to the unique clinical needs of my clients.

We will work together to better understand your situation, broaden your perspective, and perhaps bring about new understandings about yourself. Alongside helping you better understand your struggles, we'll devise an extensive action plan to effectively address difficult thoughts and feelings. This will be accomplished through selecting from a wide variety of strategies practised in-session, which will thereby equip you with a set of personalised tools to regain a sense of direction and agency in your life. To help in that regard, you will identify and learn to live life based on your most heartfelt values; values that give your life meaning, purpose and fulfilment. 

If you're struggling with your mental health and you're unsure of a way forward, with your day mostly focused on just getting by, I will help you embark on a new path through a combination of detailed exploration and practical, tailored intervention. 

I work in Mansfield, Nottingham, and online. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, much of my work has shifted to telehealth, enabling me to reach clients across the UK. I will be offering in-person sessions again in September 2026.

I graduated from the University of Nottingham in 2018 with a First-Class Bachelor of Arts degree in Humanistic Counselling Practice with Honours, focusing on person-centred psychology. After qualifying as a counsellor, I was awarded a Master of Arts degree in Criminology from Nottingham Trent University in 2019. 

I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), and abide by their ethical framework for the counselling and psychotherapy professions.

I have continued to hone my craft and passion through ongoing professional development and regular clinical supervision. I have undertaken further postgraduate training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to augment the versatility of my counselling approach and thus incorporate ACT procedures into my practice.

My primary academic interests include the therapeutic properties and applications of cognitive-emotional defusion, unconditional positive regard, and self-compassion.

As I’m in the midst of exploring my faith, I am interested in the role of the transcendent in therapy for those whose sense of meaning and purpose derives from the numinous. You are welcome to bring your religious or spiritual beliefs and practices into your counselling.

As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP), I faithfully abide by the ethical framework issued by my professional association and governing body, ensuring the highest standards of practice.
