Dagmar Spencer, BACP

Dagmar Spencer is a UK-based therapist holding the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - with four years of professional experience. She works with adults facing a range of common and complex concerns, including stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes, and she also offers focused support for issues such as autism and Asperger syndrome, codependency, feelings of emptiness, forgiveness, guilt and shame, questions about life purpose, self-harm, sexual assault and abuse, and challenges faced by young adults.

Her practice draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), existential therapy, Imago relationship therapy, and solution-focused therapy, adapting these approaches to the priorities and pace of each person she meets. She aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly, and she emphasizes collaboration so clients can work toward practical changes and deeper understanding. Dagmar acknowledges that beginning therapy often takes courage and affirms the step of reaching out as an important start to change.
