About Dinah
Counsellor (BACP) with 5 years' experience. Dinah Knox-Hooke works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, and depression. She practises in the United Kingdom and sees clients in English, including from other countries.
Dinah says people are the experts on their own stories and that therapy is a collaborative process. She uses a person-centred approach and draws on elements from psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioural therapy to guide conversations. Sessions are described as relaxed and conversational, with space to talk without pressure.
In practice she helps people name what is hard and notice strengths they already have. She supports work on attachment and abandonment concerns, communication problems, control issues, and fatherhood questions. She also addresses feelings such as guilt, shame, isolation and low mood.
Dinah offers a mix of listening and practical techniques. That can mean thinking through relationship patterns, trying small behavioural experiments, or reflecting on how early experiences affect current choices. She aims to help people manage workplace stress, social anxiety, and issues around self-worth.

How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy stresses listening and the client's own expertise about their life. In online sessions this means the counsellor asks open questions, reflects what she hears, and helps clients clarify goals and priorities. It is useful for anxiety, depression and relationship concerns where exploring personal experience matters.Psychodynamic ideas are used to look at recurring patterns and how past relationships influence current behaviour. That work often involves noticing themes in what a client says over several sessions and thinking about where those patterns might come from.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss different ways of working and adjust methods based on the client's needs, preferences and progress. Clients help set the pace and decide which techniques feel most useful.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Online appointments can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins around work, or to join a session when being on camera is not necessary. Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific formats.
