About Daniel

Daniel Palmer offers calm, approachable support for people facing stress, anxiety, addictions and other difficult issues. He speaks plainly and focuses on what a person needs right now. Daniel aims to help people find clearer ways to cope, feel steadier, and make small changes that improve day-to-day life.

He uses client-centred and solution-focused ways of working. That means sessions are led by the person's concerns, and by practical steps that can make a difference quickly.

Background and approach

Daniel listens without judgement and helps people spot what is working, then build on it. Daniel has five years of experience in independent practice. He has also worked with survivors of sexual assault and at a trauma centre, so he is familiar with supporting people after distressing events.

His practice has included work with addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression and neurodivergent clients including those with ADHD. Sessions are offered online, by phone, live chat or text messaging, which can suit people who need flexibility around work or family life. He also provides face-to-face appointments where appropriate.

Daniel explains the options and helps people choose what will suit them best. People often come with worries about relationships, body image, grief, or difficulties with self-esteem. Daniel supports exploration of those concerns and helps people develop practical coping strategies.

He aims to make the first step into therapy as straightforward and understandable as possible.

How Daniel’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. The work is led by the person's concerns and pace, and the therapist reflects back what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs space to talk, be heard and make sense of difficult feelings.

Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, practical changes. It helps people identify what they want to be different and try manageable steps to move towards that goal. This approach is useful for stress, anxiety, addictions and when someone wants concrete strategies to improve day-to-day life.

Choosing the right approach happens together. Daniel will discuss options and adapt the work to the person's goals and preferences. The plan can change as therapy progresses so it stays useful and relevant.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful. Phone sessions are a good option if bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits better. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing, need quick access between sessions, or who want to manage therapy around busy schedules.
