About Me

Counsellor in Bexleyheath, Sidcup, Dartford and Online

Hello there! I'm Dawn Joseph, and I'm so glad you've found your way here. Are you thinking of taking your first steps towards counselling? It's a big decision, and I believe everyone deserves choices when it comes to finding the right support.

My Journey

My journey into counselling began in an educational establishment, where I worked as a residential house lead. It was there, creating a nurturing holistic, supportive environment, that I discovered my passion for helping others navigate life's challenges.

As an integrative counsellor, I offer a range of approaches that I can adapt to meet your unique needs. I work with people of all ages and stages in their lives, specialising in children and young people. Whether you're engaging in therapy for the first time or returning to explore a new issue, I'm here to work with you and your agenda. After all, one size doesn't fit all!

In our work together, we'll explore your thoughts and emotions in a safe, non-judgemental space. My role isn't to provide solutions but to help you expand your awareness, understand yourself better, and find the best path for your ongoing journey.

I'm particularly passionate about working with neurodivergent individuals, having extensive experience with ASD and ADHD. But regardless of your background or challenges, my aim is to provide a supportive space where you can be yourself and grow.

Remember, counselling is about us working together at your pace. You're in control of your journey, and I'm here to walk alongside you every step of the way.
