Dr. Wouter Dreyer, BACP

Dr. Wouter Dreyer is a dedicated and compassionate psychotherapist who supports people in making sense of their life stories and finding more stable emotional balance. He holds a postdoctoral master’s degree in Counselling with distinction from the University of Nottingham (2011), an advanced postgraduate qualification that reflects focused training in therapeutic practice. He is also a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the UK professional body for counselling and psychotherapy.

His therapeutic style is relational, reflective and collaborative, grounded in the belief that meaningful change begins when a person feels genuinely heard and understood. He works with clients to trace how early experiences, family patterns and significant life events continue to influence present thoughts, emotions and relationships. By increasing awareness of those underlying influences, many people find release from long-standing patterns, learn to relate to themselves with greater kindness and build healthier connections with others.

People come to him for help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties and challenges around self-esteem, addictions or life transitions. For those engaging in longer-term work, therapy often becomes a setting for deep self-discovery and restoration where old wounds can be addressed and new ways of being can emerge. With over twelve years of experience across military, industry and academic settings, he brings a balanced and mature perspective to the collaborative process of insight, courage and transformation.
