About Dagmar
Dagmar Salamonova-Clark is a BACP counsellor with 14 years of clinical experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with issues young adults often face, including anxiety, depression, relationship worries, career stress and identity concerns. She also supports people dealing with addiction, grief, trauma, ADHD and eating difficulties.
Her sessions are conversational and focused on what matters now. She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice patterns, try different responses and make practical changes. She uses person-centred ways of working to keep the conversation grounded in the client's experience.
Dagmar’s background includes work in NHS services, university counselling and employee assistance programmes, and private practice. That range means she has experience of common early-adult pressures - leaving home, study or work transitions, and relationship changes.
She speaks English, Czech and Slovak and is open to working with people from different countries. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time; costs vary with location.
To start, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled. That initial meeting is used to set goals and decide which methods to try first. Ongoing work is reviewed regularly so the practical steps remain relevant to day-to-day life.
Dagmar describes herself as an authentic practitioner who attends to the whole person. She combines structured techniques with reflective conversation so clients can both learn new skills and make sense of how past experiences influence present choices.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. It’s useful for anxiety, low mood and decisions about work or relationships. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to change patterns. It can help with stress, sleep problems, and unhelpful rituals. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current connections and helps people work on trust, boundaries and emotional closeness. Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. She will discuss goals and preferences in the first meetings and suggest which methods to try. Plans are reviewed over time so the work stays relevant to everyday pressures like study, new jobs or relationship shifts. Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options here. Many people value online sessions because they can fit appointments around study or work, avoid travel, and use shorter check-ins when time is tight. Other practical benefits include easier access to a therapist who speaks your language and the ability to continue work when life circumstances change. Registered or accredited professionals can help you decide how to structure sessions so they fit your routine and goals.Areas of expertise
