About Dean
Dean Audsley is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. He supports people who are adjusting to life changes and those dealing with addictions, sleep or eating concerns. Dean works from the view that clients are the experts in their own lives and brings a steady, practical presence to sessions.
He holds BACP, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Background and approach
Dean has four years of professional experience working with a range of emotional and mood difficulties, including panic, bipolar features and problems with impulsivity. He also offers support around issues such as guilt, shame and self-love. Dean draws on existential ideas to help people think about meaning, choice and responsibility in their lives.
He uses client-centred listening so people feel heard and understood. Mindfulness techniques are offered to help manage stress and grounding in the present. In sessions he will work collaboratively to set clear goals and small steps forward.
Solution-focused methods are used when someone wants brief practical tools to change a pattern or manage a crisis. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at what will make life more manageable day to day. People may come with questions about career direction, social anxiety, relationships within a family context or struggles with isolation.
Dean speaks English and accepts international clients, offering a mix of telephone, video, live chat and text-based messaging formats.

Online support
Approaches for online therapy and practical support
Dean commonly uses Existential Therapy to help people consider meaning, choice and personal responsibility when life feels difficult; this can be useful for issues like life purpose, grief or major transitions. He also works in a client-centred way which means offering active, non-judgemental listening so people feel heard and can explore their own solutions. Mindfulness Therapy is used to teach simple, present-moment skills that reduce anxiety and improve sleep by focusing attention and breathing.Choosing an approach is part of the work. Dean will discuss your goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working. You and the therapist decide together whether to focus on meaning, practical tools, mindfulness exercises, or a mix of these, and plans are adapted as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distance. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging can be helpful for short check-ins, written reflections or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options offer flexibility so people can choose what fits their routine and communication style.
