About Dean

AASW registered social worker with six years' experience, Dean Rogers helps people with stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship strain, grief and ageing-related issues. He works with adults on mood and coping problems such as depression, anger, sleep or eating difficulties, and concerns about intimacy or self-esteem.

Dean draws on a mix of practical methods including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy alongside attachment-informed work and client-centred listening. Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps rather than jargon. He aims to help people try small changes and notice what works in everyday life.

People commonly bring worries about family conflict, caregiving stress, parenting strain, or transitions such as retirement. Dean also supports those dealing with substance use, bipolar-related challenges, and trauma or abuse reactions. He pays attention to how relationships and family of origin issues shape present behaviour.

In sessions Dean uses short, focused conversations and reflective listening to help clients name patterns and choose workable actions. He may introduce exercises from ACT and CBT to practise between sessions, and explore attachment themes where relationships are central to the problem.

He holds a credential in Positive Psychology in addition to his AASW registration. Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.

How his approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and try small, values-driven actions. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and uses straightforward practices to reduce distress and improve routines. Attachment-Informed work focuses on relationship patterns and how early connections affect current interactions and intimacy concerns.

Choosing a therapeutic approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss different methods and help decide which fits a person's goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as the work progresses so methods can be adjusted where needed.

The original biography does not list specific session formats for online work, so please confirm available formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions help them keep continuity during life transitions, while still using ACT and CBT exercises between meetings.
