About Dean
Dean Audsley is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and grief. He works with clients who struggle with confidence, motivation and changes in life. Dean offers a calm, respectful presence and aims to help people feel heard and understood.
He believes that each person knows their own story best. He uses that starting point to help clients notice strengths and small steps forward.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical change as well as understanding what keeps problems going. Dean draws on client-centred work to prioritise the person in the room. He also uses elements of mindfulness to help reduce overwhelm and solution-focused ideas to set clear, short-term goals.
Existential ideas help people wrestle with meaning and purpose when life feels uncertain. In sessions people can expect straightforward conversation, active listening and gentle challenges when helpful. Dean aims to keep therapy simple and practical, with tools you can use between appointments.
He supports people who want help with sleep, eating, anger, work stress, addictions and mood difficulties. Dean holds BACP, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He has four years of professional experience and offers sessions in English.
He sees clients from the UK and also accepts international clients. Appointments are available by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

Approaches Dean lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
He also draws on mindfulness therapy to teach simple attention and breathing strategies. These practices can reduce overwhelm, improve sleep and help with panic or intense mood swings.
Finding the right approach is something to do together. Dean will discuss what feels helpful, test different techniques and adapt the plan to a client's goals and preferences. The choice of method is collaborative rather than fixed.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video lets you use visual cues, phone sessions require less bandwidth and live chat or messaging can suit short check-ins or people who prefer typed communication. These options give flexibility for work breaks, travel or differing energy levels while keeping therapy consistent and focused.
