About Dagmar
Dagmar Spencer helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and the impact of trauma and abuse. She supports people working on self-esteem and coping with major life changes. She also focuses on concerns such as codependency, feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame, and issues often faced by young adults.
Dagmar keeps sessions straightforward and down to earth. She aims to create an open space where clients can speak honestly and be heard without judgement.
How Dagmar works
Conversations are paced to suit each person so they can tackle one issue at a time. Her practice draws on several well-known approaches. Client-Centred Therapy shapes the work when people need a non-directive space to talk and be understood.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used when people want practical steps to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Existential ideas can help those wrestling with meaning, purpose or feelings of emptiness. Dagmar has BACP accreditation, showing she follows recognised professional standards in the United Kingdom.
She has four years of experience working with these kinds of problems and keeps her style warm and pragmatic. Sessions are available in English and are delivered online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. The process starts by selecting Start Therapy, completing a short matching questionnaire, and booking sessions to fit the client’s schedule.

How Dagmar’s approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. The therapist offers an accepting space where people can talk through feelings and be helped to find their own direction. This approach suits those who need time to process and to be heard.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, gives practical tools to change thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. It often involves setting small goals and trying out new habits between sessions, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dagmar will discuss different ways of working and agree a plan based on the person’s goals and preferences. That collaborative process means methods can change as needs evolve.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging can make it easier to fit sessions around a busy life. Video calls let people read non-verbal cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be quicker to arrange, live chat suits brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options increase flexibility and make it more practical to keep regular sessions.
