Dawn Rogers , BACP

Dawn Rogers is a UK-based counselling professional who has worked in the field since 2005 and brings two decades of experience to her practice. She combines professional training and personal lived experience of depression to understand how life’s challenges accumulate and shape well-being. Dawn has developed depth in supporting both children and adults with a range of mental health concerns, drawing on years of work across schools, fostering communities, the mental health and wellbeing organisation Live Well Kent, GP surgeries, counselling charities, and a private practice.

She is a member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), which reflects her commitment to recognised professional standards in the UK. Dawn is particularly experienced with Autism and ADHD and is sensitive to everyday struggles such as masking and anxiety where awareness and support can be limited. Her approach blends creativity and grounded listening, emphasising acceptance as a pathway to greater self-understanding and the emergence of a more authentic sense of self.

Dawn also works with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, depression and a wide range of relationship and life-change issues. She views each person as the expert of their own story and focuses on identifying strengths that can support change. Prospective clients are invited to make contact to see whether she feels like the right fit and to clarify goals for counselling.

Evidence-informed approaches and flexible online support

Dawn Rogers uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the needs presented. She offers skills-based strategies to help manage stress, anxiety and everyday challenges associated with ADHD - practical tools aim to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day functioning. She also provides trauma-informed support and grief-focused work that helps people process painful experiences and rebuild a sense of stability after loss or abuse. Additionally, her acceptance-focused, strengths-based approach supports self-esteem and motivation by helping clients identify and use their existing resources.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Dawn works collaboratively with each person to determine the best fit based on needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative stance helps shape a plan that feels relevant and manageable for the individual.

Online therapy with Dawn is available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals while accommodating work, family commitments and geographic distance.
