Therapeutic approaches and online support
Dina commonly draws on a person-centred approach, which focuses on creating an empathic and respectful relationship that allows clients to explore their feelings and discover their own solutions. This approach is helpful for issues like low self-esteem, isolation, and navigating life changes.
She also uses solution-focused techniques that concentrate on practical steps and immediate strengths to help manage stress, anxiety and relationship concerns. These brief, goal-oriented methods aim to build momentum and coping strategies for everyday challenges.
At times Dina integrates psychodynamic ideas to explore how past experiences and attachment patterns may influence present emotions and behaviour, which can be useful for working with issues such as abandonment and relational difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Dina works with each person to identify which methods best suit their needs, goals and preferences, adapting the style of therapy as understanding and trust grow.
Online therapy offers flexible access to support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or mobility needs, and allow clients to receive consistent care from registered professionals regardless of location within the United Kingdom.
