About Dominique

Dominique Phillips is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression and relationship difficulties. She also helps with practical life changes such as parenting strains, career worries and sleep problems. Dominique offers support to people facing compassion fatigue, caregiver stress, and concerns related to identity and LGBT issues.

Dominique aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them. Sessions focus on listening, making sense of patterns in feelings and behaviour, and finding small, workable changes that fit into everyday life. She works with people on issues such as attachment, commitment and communication problems, and identity matters that affect self-esteem and relationships.

Her approach is collaborative. Dominique helps people set clear goals, checks in about what is and isn’t working, and adapts the pace to each person. She will support practical steps for coping with overwhelming times, such as grief, separation, or long-term stress, and can help explore sexual identity and alternative relationship cultures when this is part of a client’s concerns.

Dominique has eight years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. That registration is shown here as BACP. She works with people who are juggling care responsibilities and those affected by caregiver strain.

If you are considering support for mood, relationships or life changes, Dominique encourages an initial conversation to see whether her way of working feels like a good fit for you.

How Dominique uses therapeutic methods online

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on helping people understand feelings and change unhelpful patterns. One common method involves talking through thoughts and emotions to spot patterns and try new ways of responding; this helps with anxiety, depression and stress. Another approach uses practical coping strategies and step-by-step tasks to manage difficult moments, which can be useful for sleep problems, caregiver strain and compassion fatigue.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Dominique will discuss different methods with you, and together you will pick what feels most useful for your goals and preferences. That collaborative process includes checking in regularly and adjusting the approach if something isn’t helping.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around busy days and avoiding travel time. Online work can make it easier to attend from different locations, and it can slot into a break at work or a quieter moment at home. Confirm the current session options when you book so you know how appointments will be arranged.
