Dawn Edney is a senior accredited therapist registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Based in central Chichester, she offers both long and short-term counselling, drawing from a strong foundation in Psychodynamic Therapy. However, she frequently integrates elements from other therapeutic approaches to build a treatment plan that best suits each individual client. This flexible and responsive style ensures that clients receive the support that is most effective for their unique circumstances.
In addition to her private practice, Dawn brings a wealth of experience from working across a range of professional environments. These include the NHS, GP surgeries, charitable organisations, and secondary schools. Her broad client base has included adolescents as young as 13, right through to older adults in their nineties. Regardless of age or background, Dawn provides a confidential, safe, and non-judgemental space where clients can explore challenges and gain clarity.
As an approved provider with major health insurers—including AXA, BUPA and AVIVA—clients also have the option to access counselling through their GP or health insurance plan.
Dawn supports individuals navigating a wide variety of issues, from anxiety and depression to bereavement, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties. Her tailored approach ensures that therapy aligns with each client’s pace and personal goals.
By drawing from both traditional Psychodynamic methods and other integrative techniques, she helps clients examine underlying patterns and understand the root causes of emotional distress. Sessions focus not only on symptom relief but also on achieving long-term emotional resilience.
Dawn is nationally recognised as an accredited supervisor in Interpersonal Psychotherapy. She works with students in training as well as fully qualified therapists from a variety of theoretical backgrounds. Her supervision services are available on both a group and one-to-one basis.
Whether you’re in the early stages of your career or are a seasoned practitioner, Dawn offers reflective and developmental support to enhance your clinical work.
Appointments in Chichester are available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays between 9am and 5pm. The therapy space is modern, discreet, and comfortable, with convenient access to local parking and public transport.
Dawn is committed to providing high-quality, ethical therapy in a supportive setting. Her depth of experience and flexible approach make her an excellent choice for anyone seeking counselling in Chichester or via referral through health insurance.
