About Daniel

Background and approach
Over nine years he has worked in agency settings and in independent practice, gaining experience supporting people with trauma, mood disorders and addictions. Daniel combines several therapy styles to suit what each person needs. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people focus on values and small actions.
Attachment-Based ideas help him look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Client-Centred listening gives space for people to be heard and understood. Sessions often begin with straightforward self-regulation tools before moving to deeper material.
Daniel describes his work as collaborative - he and the client agree on goals and try practical ways to meet them. He pays attention to how thinking and feeling interact and looks for techniques that fit someone’s life. He has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, anxiety, depression, ADHD and issues connected to family and intimacy.
International clients are welcome and sessions are offered online through several formats for practical flexibility.

Therapy approaches adapted for online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people identify what matters to them and take small, practical steps towards those values while living with difficult thoughts. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns and can help with intimacy and relationship concerns by mapping connection and distance. Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the centre, using empathic listening to help people make sense of their feelings and choices.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to agree what to try first, then reviews what is helping and what needs changing. Clients and therapist check in about methods and goals so the plan stays useful and practical.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and messaging lets people reflect between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
