About Dagmar
Dagmar Salamonova-Clark is a BACP counsellor who helps people dealing with anxiety, depression, parenting strain, relationship problems, grief, trauma, addictions and stress. She offers calm, down-to-earth support for people trying to find practical ways forward. Sessions aim to make day-to-day life feel more manageable and to help clients build clearer coping tools.
Dagmar draws on a mix of talking approaches to suit each person. She combines ideas from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused approaches and a client-centred stance.
Background and approach
That means she listens closely, helps people notice unhelpful patterns, and works with what matters most to them. Her background includes long experience in health and counselling settings in the United Kingdom and previous roles in university and employee assistance programmes. She has 14 years of practice and holds BACP accreditation, which is noted here as part of her professional standing.
In sessions she aims to be warm and straightforward. Conversations focus on current problems, patterns that keep those problems going, and small steps that make a difference. Therapy can include practical exercises, new ways of thinking, and talking about feelings and relationships.
Dagmar speaks English, Czech and Slovak and sees clients from different countries. Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or messaging. To start, clients complete a short questionnaire and then arrange a first appointment.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on small actions that align with their values; it can help with anxiety, stress and motivation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, useful for depression, anxiety and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can help people who struggle with closeness, trust or intimacy.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss what matters to the client, try methods that fit their goals, and adjust as the work develops. That collaborative way aims to make therapy feel relevant and manageable from the start.
Online therapy offers real flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual contact helps. Phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging let clients write between sessions and use therapy during busy days. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the therapeutic focus on progress and practical steps.
