Dion Gray, BACP

Dion Gray welcomes people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by change. She helps clients facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, workplace strain, and relationship challenges. Dion is also experienced supporting those coping with trauma, parenting strain, identity and self-esteem concerns, and major life transitions.

She works in a warm, interactive way and aims to treat people with respect and sensitivity. Sessions are collaborative and focused on what matters to the client. Dion does not use stigmatising labels when talking about someone’s difficulties.

Dion trained and practised as an Integrative Therapeutic Counsellor and holds BACP registration. She brings three years of professional experience working with a range of presenting issues. That experience includes supporting people affected by abuse and physical trauma as well as those navigating career decisions and workplace stress.

Her methods draw on several approaches, including client-centred work, cognitive behavioural ideas, psychodynamic thinking, solution-focused steps and trauma-focused techniques. She adapts the mix according to the conversation and the agreed plan, so sessions stay relevant and practical.

Dion aims to help people build clearer thinking, steadier mood, and better ways of coping. She encourages small, manageable steps and practical tools alongside deeper reflection. If someone is ready to begin, Dion offers support to explore goals and next steps.

How Dion’s approaches translate to online therapy

Dion uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques to steer practical change. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client’s concerns, helping people feel heard and clearer about their priorities. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and uses simple, concrete strategies to change them.

She also draws on trauma-focused ideas when work turns to past painful experiences. Trauma-focused methods tend to break problems down into manageable pieces and emphasise stabilising skills before deeper processing. Together these approaches can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship strain and the effects of difficult events.

Finding the right mix of ways of working is part of therapy. Dion will discuss goals, try different techniques, and agree a plan with the client. This is a collaborative process where methods are adjusted to match progress and preference.

The original biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so please confirm available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so therapy fits around work or family routines.
