Dina Villanueva , BACP

Dina Villanueva brings a calm, empathetic presence to counselling, helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. She is known for a warm, non-judgemental style that prioritises listening and understanding, allowing clients to explore what matters to them at their own pace.

With five years of professional experience in mental health services, Dina has spent three of those years providing successful counselling to adults and young people. She works flexibly to accommodate individual needs and circumstances and supports clients as they move toward personal growth and meaningful change. Dina holds BACP, a professional counselling membership, which reflects her commitment to recognised professional standards.

Dina practises primarily in a person-centred and relational way, emphasising the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change. When helpful, she draws on solution-focused ideas to identify practical steps forward and psychodynamic perspectives to explore how past experiences shape present feelings. Her approach is collaborative - she aims to be a supportive companion on each client’s chosen journey toward greater fulfilment and resilience.

Clients can expect a considerate, steady therapist who values them as whole people and works to create a supportive, personal environment for healing.
