About Dario

Dario De Gaetanis is a licensed counsellor and mindfulness-based practitioner with 14 years of professional experience working across the United Kingdom and internationally. He combines formal training in psychology with practical experience as an Emotional Literacy Support Assistant in a primary school, bringing a calm, grounded presence to sessions. As a holder of the NCPS credential, he demonstrates professional training in counselling and psychotherapy and applies that knowledge through a mindfulness-centered approach.

Mindfulness sits at the heart of Dario's work. His practice draws on Vipassana meditation and Buddhist Dharma teachings alongside Western therapeutic models, creating an integrative form of counselling that addresses emotional regulation, self-awareness, and personal growth. He blends Client-Centered principles with elements from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Internal Family Systems, and incorporates somatic and body-based awareness practices so clients can engage both mind and body during healing.

Clients come to Dario for help with stress, anxiety, anger, trauma, relationship and family concerns, grief, addiction, self-esteem, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting challenges, career issues, and ADHD among other areas. His style is supportive and exploratory, aiming to help people return to bodily awareness, access repressed emotions, and discover inner resources. Dario frames therapy as a collaborative process that supports sustainable coping and gradual change, encouraging each person to find practical tools alongside deeper understanding.

Mindfulness-informed approaches and online support

Dario integrates mindfulness therapy into a client-centered framework to help people build greater awareness of thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations. Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention practices and present-focused awareness that support emotional regulation and reduce reactivity, making it useful for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes an empathic and nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the client’s own goals and pace guide the work; this approach helps with self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship issues. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and increasing tolerance for distress, which can be helpful for anger, mood instability, and self-regulation difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Dario collaborates with each person to identify what fits best. He listens to clients' needs, preferences, and goals, and blends techniques so the process remains tailored and flexible rather than one-size-fits-all.

Online therapy with Dario is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide practical access and scheduling flexibility. These formats allow clients to engage from home or work, fit sessions around busy lives, and maintain continuity of care across locations. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt these methods to deliver effective support while keeping the focus on the client’s goals and day-to-day functioning.
