Background and approach
Relationship and family topics are part of his practice, along with parenting-related stresses and LGBT issues. Dan uses a blend of practical and reflective methods. He draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns.
He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small, manageable steps towards them. Sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. International clients can be seen in English.
The subscription model funds sessions and can be cancelled at any time, and costs vary by location and therapist availability. People often come with specific areas such as attachment concerns, adoption and foster care questions, ageing and caregiving strain, body image, or communication and commitment issues.
Dan adapts the conversation to what matters most to the individual and works at a pace they find comfortable. To begin, select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability. Dan does not offer appointments at weekends.

How Dan's approaches work online
Dan commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy when working with people. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without fighting them, then choose actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, stress and complex life choices. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to change patterns that keep problems going.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dan will explore your goals, preferences and what feels useful, then adjust techniques as therapy progresses. This is a collaborative process where you and the therapist agree what to try and review how it is working.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let you see facial cues and use screen-shared resources. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or suit lower bandwidth situations. Live chat and text messaging allow ongoing reflection between appointments and can fit around busy days. Registered or accredited professionals provide these formats so people can choose what fits their life and needs.
