Dominic Kelleher, BACP

Dominic Kelleher is a counsellor who helps adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and self-esteem problems. He also supports people dealing with career concerns and major life changes. Dominic works in a direct, down-to-earth way so people can talk about what matters to them without feeling judged.

He practises a client-centred approach. That means he listens closely and follows each person's pace rather than pushing a set plan. Sessions focus on making sense of feelings, spotting patterns, and trying new ways to cope that fit everyday life.

Dominic holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He has three years of practice experience and has worked with more than 100 clients across over 1,000 sessions. He is based in the United Kingdom and has lived and worked in several countries, which informs his work with people from diverse backgrounds.

Common themes he addresses include attachment and abandonment concerns, communication and commitment issues, body image and control-related worries, and coping with chronic illness or caregiving stress. He also supports people affected by divorce, domestic violence, addiction and fatherhood-related strain.

Sessions are conversational and focused on what the client wants to change. Dominic aims to build a working relationship that helps people feel clearer about choices and better able to manage day-to-day challenges.

Client-centred work and online counselling

Dominic practises client-centred therapy, which is about building a respectful, non-judgemental relationship. The focus is on listening, reflecting what you say, and helping you make sense of feelings so you can decide what to try next. This approach can help with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and self-esteem issues.

He also draws on his experience with attachment and abandonment themes to notice repeating patterns in relationships. That kind of focus helps when people want clearer communication, better boundaries or support through separation and caregiving stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dominic will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then shape sessions together. That collaborative process helps ensure the way you work together fits what you need and how you prefer to engage.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits. They also let people connect with a counsellor who has international experience without needing to travel.
