Background and approach
Sessions aim to be practical and straightforward, with tools people can use between meetings. In the room he focuses on clear goals and steps people can try. He helps to identify patterns that keep problems cycling and to build small, manageable changes.
He also supports work on identity, intimacy and relationship concerns using emotion-focused ideas when helpful. Daniel has experience working with grief, trauma and long-term health challenges as well as issues such as eating and sleeping difficulties. He brings a calm, steady manner and adapts how he works to each person’s needs and preferences.
Therapy is offered through online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. People can expect a collaborative process where the counsellor and client decide together what will be most useful. He is based in the United Kingdom and uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time.

How his approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress and life changes by building flexible ways of coping.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical strategies to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT helps with mood problems, sleep and many forms of anxiety by giving step-by-step tools to try between sessions.
Client-Centred Therapy centres on listening, empathy and the person’s own pace. It supports people who need space to understand their emotions and make decisions without pressure.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences, then try methods that fit the person’s needs. Decisions are made together and adjusted as progress is reviewed.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be a quieter option, live chat suits short check-ins, and text messaging lets people reflect in writing. These choices offer flexibility for work, caring duties or different communication styles and still allow therapists to use ACT, CBT and client-centred practices effectively.
