About Dion
Dion Gray is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief and parenting challenges. She also supports people coping with trauma, workplace difficulties and life transitions.
Dion uses straightforward conversation and practical techniques. Sessions focus on what is happening at home and at work, and on small changes that reduce day-to-day pressure. She mixes talking-based work with structured tools drawn from cognitive behavioural and trauma-informed approaches.
Her background includes helping people who have experienced emotional or physical abuse, and those dealing with attachment issues, isolation or the particular stresses faced by first responders. She also offers support around self-esteem, social anxiety, women’s issues and young adult concerns.
In the room she aims to listen without judgment and to avoid labels that feel limiting. Assessment and early sessions identify what matters most, whether that is managing panic, navigating a difficult relationship, or practical parenting worries.
Therapy can include short-term problem solving as well as deeper work that looks at patterns from the past. Dion blends client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural steps and psychodynamic reflection to help people try different ways of coping.
To begin, she suggests a first appointment to discuss priorities and agree a plan. Clients can expect clear discussion of goals and regular check-ins about progress.
How sessions work
How her approaches work online
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist reflects what matters most to the client and follows their priorities, which can help with relationship strain and parenting stress.Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) uses practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It is commonly used for anxiety, low mood and social worry, and can include simple at-home exercises to try between sessions.
Trauma-focused work concentrates on stabilising symptoms and developing coping strategies after abuse or frightening events. It combines grounding techniques with paced discussion of the impact of those experiences.
Finding the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that suit the client, and adjust the plan as needs change. That conversation is part of the initial sessions rather than a one-time choice.
Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use these practical advantages to help people sustain therapy alongside family and work commitments.
