About Dagmar
Dagmar Ball is a counsellor with seven years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She uses a warm, approachable manner to help people dealing with low mood, depression and a wide range of related concerns. She focuses on creating a steady space where people can talk about what matters to them and begin to make small, practical changes.
Her background includes supporting people who have experienced trauma and abuse, including sexual, physical and domestic violence.
Background and approach
She also works with those facing grief, anxiety, stress, addiction and relationship or parenting pressures. Additional areas of focus include ADHD, bipolar, chronic illness and attachment or abandonment issues. Dagmar draws on client-centred ways of working to put the person’s experience at the centre of the conversation.
She also offers trauma-focused methods and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) when these approaches are appropriate. Sessions are adapted to each person rather than following a fixed script. Sessions are practical and down to earth.
Dagmar will listen, ask questions and gently challenge unhelpful thinking. She aims to help people uncover strengths and try manageable steps that feel doable in daily life. People can expect straightforward language and a collaborative tone in sessions.
Dagmar works with adults and young people from age 11, and she offers therapy in English to clients in the UK and internationally.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Dagmar will talk through different methods with each client and make decisions in collaboration, taking into account personal goals, comfort and response to the work. The approach can be adapted as therapy progresses to find what helps most.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video lets people see non-verbal cues, phone calls need less bandwidth and can be a good shorter check-in, while chat or messaging can suit those who prefer not to be on camera or who want to write between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while keeping a consistent therapeutic relationship with a registered professional.
