Hi, I'm Flora Dyson.
Ever since I was a child, I’ve been deeply curious about the human experience — our relationships and boundaries, the balance between self and other, the experiences of pain and healing, life and meaning. These are such vital parts of our lives, yet they’re rarely given the attention they deserve in our education or everyday lives.
Guided by that curiosity, I went on to study psychology and human resources management. But it wasn’t until I faced my own loss and hardship that I truly encountered counselling. I was struck by the profound sense of connection and support I felt in those sessions — the simple but powerful experience of being seen, heard, and accepted by another human being, exactly as I was. Even in moments of deep pain, there was a warmth and presence that offered comfort and hope.
That experience became the turning point that led me to begin my own journey of training in counselling and psychotherapy. As an accredited integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, I see therapy as a collaborative exploration — a space where we can gently uncover patterns, meaning, and possibility together.
Outside of sessions, I enjoy nature walks, reading, board games, and folk music — and I bring that same sense of creativity and wonder into my practice. If you’re ready to take a step toward deeper self-understanding and change, I would be honoured to walk alongside you.
I’m an accredited registrant of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS).
This means I’m listed on an Accredited Register regulated by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA) for Health and Social Care — a government-backed body that ensures the public can choose safe, ethical, and high-standard health professionals.

I hold a BSc in Applied Psychology, an MSc in Human Resources, a Foundation Certificate in Counselling Skills, and a Diploma in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy (Accredited).
Before becoming a therapist, I worked for over a decade within the University, supporting students and staff across pastoral, welfare, and wellbeing roles. These experiences gave me a deep understanding of the challenges people face in both personal and professional settings, and the importance of compassionate, person-centred support.
Alongside my professional work, I’ve been a devoted volunteer for local and national charities. I have volunteered as a bereavement supporter with Cruse Bereavement Support, and as a volunteer therapist with Share Psychotherapy, a Sheffield-based charity offering low-cost, long-term therapy.
I am deeply committed to ongoing learning and professional growth. I regularly engage in Continuing Professional Development (CPD) through training, supervision, and reflective practice, ensuring my work remains safe, ethical, and aligned with current best practices within psychotherapy.
