About Dina
With five years of professional experience in mental health services, including three years of focused counselling work with adults and young people, Dina draws on a blend of approaches to meet individual needs. She primarily works in a person-centred and relational way, and at times integrates solution-focused techniques and psychodynamic ideas to help link current feelings to earlier experiences. Her aim is to accompany clients on their chosen journey toward greater fulfilment and resilience.
Dina holds BACP accreditation - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects her commitment to professional standards and ongoing development. She offers flexible support that responds to each client’s circumstances and preferences.
Person-Centred and Solution-Focused Support Online
Dina primarily works in a person-centred and relational way - an approach that centres on empathy, genuine understanding, and the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change. This method helps people feel heard and valued while they explore stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, and self-esteem concerns.
She also uses solution-focused techniques to help clients identify practical steps and small changes that move them toward their goals. This approach concentrates on strengths and what is working now, which can be useful for coping with life changes and immediate challenges. At times Dina may draw on psychodynamic ideas to explore how past experiences and attachment patterns influence current feelings and relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work and Dina treats this as a collaborative process. She will discuss options with each person, tailoring techniques to fit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences rather than applying a single model.
Online sessions - whether by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - offer flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and access support from licensed professionals in a way that fits everyday life.
