Dylan Przedworski, AASW

Dylan Przedworski is an AASW counsellor with 12 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression and addictions. He also supports concerns such as self-esteem, grief, intimacy-related issues, sleeping problems, career changes and compassion fatigue. Dylan aims to make first contact less daunting and clear what happens in sessions. His style is warm, interactive and person-centred. He treats people with respect and sensitivity and avoids stigmatizing labels. Conversations are practical and rooted in what matters most to each person. Dylan uses a mix of approaches chosen to suit the person and their goals. He draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. These methods are combined in simple, down-to-earth ways rather than as fixed formulas. Sessions focus on clear steps you can try between meetings. That might mean trying different ways to manage strong emotions, building everyday routines for sleep and energy, or practising communication skills for sexual and intimacy concerns including BDSM and kink issues. He also supports people facing chronic pain, illness or disability and those dealing with caregiver stress. Dylan explains options and works alongside each person to set realistic goals. He emphasises collaboration and gradual change so steps feel manageable. If someone is ready to start, he will help them plan the next practical steps.

Approaches that suit online conversations

Dylan often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in practical, goal-focused work. ACT helps people notice painful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with chronic illness. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns, which helps with sleeping problems, stress and addictive behaviour. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dylan will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and help choose methods that feel manageable and relevant. The plan is collaborative so adjustments can be made as progress is tracked. Confirm current session options with Dylan before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people maintain continuity of care while managing health, chronic pain or caregiving responsibilities. Practical tasks, diary work and skill practice translate well to online sessions and can support steady progress without requiring a particular in-person arrangement.
