Background and approach

His background includes six years working across different roles in human relations and systems. That experience informs how he thinks about patterns in relationships and everyday life. He combines talking therapies with creative tools and coaching-style techniques when they suit the client.

Dennis draws on Client-Centred Therapy to put the person’s experience first. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try small behavioural changes. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone wants to build motivation for change.

Sessions are offered in English and he works with people from the United Kingdom and international clients. He holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. He aims to make therapy a practical part of life rather than an abstract exercise.

People can expect a collaborative conversation that looks at immediate concerns and longer patterns. The focus is on clear steps and realistic goals that fit each person’s situation.

How Dennis’ approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience and aims to create an accepting space. Online sessions let the therapist listen closely and reflect back what matters to the client, which helps with issues like low self-esteem and relationship patterns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. In online work CBT can include practical exercises to try between sessions and short check-ins to track progress for anxiety, depression and phobias.

Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to build a person’s own reasons for change. It works well when someone feels stuck with addiction, lifestyle changes or coping with major life transitions.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Dennis will discuss options with each person and agree on a plan that fits their goals and preferences. This partnership helps tailor the therapy to what feels most useful.

Online therapy provides practical flexibility. Video calls let people see facial cues and use screen-shared worksheets. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a break from work. Live chat and text-based messaging offer shorter, focused check-ins and ongoing support between longer sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into daily life.
