About Daniel

Daniel Day is a counsellor who uses a client-centred, humanistic approach. He focuses on listening with warmth and genuineness to help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or uncertain. He works with issues such as stress, anxiety, addiction, depression and relationship difficulties, including jealousy-related concerns. Before training as a counsellor he spent eight years in the Emergency Services, then worked with the Samaritans. That practical experience shaped his calm, steady manner when supporting people through crisis or major life changes. He now holds NCPS alongside four years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. Sessions are built around empathic listening and helping people put words to what they are feeling. Daniel aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can try out new ways of talking about their relationships, emotions and patterns. He also draws on psychodynamic ideas when exploring how past experiences affect present reactions. Many people come with worries about commitment, communication problems, abandonment or loneliness. He has experience with drug and alcohol addiction, body image issues and problems linked to blended family life. First responder issues and grief are among other concerns he has supported. Daniel works in English and does not take international clients. If someone is ready to explore change, he encourages them to take the next step by completing the site matching process and arranging a first appointment.

Client-centred support for online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the client's pace, helping people name feelings and decide what matters to them. This approach is useful for stress, anxiety, relationship worries and feelings of emptiness.

Where helpful, psychodynamic ideas are used to look at how past experiences shape current reactions. This can aid understanding of patterns such as attachment issues, abandonment fears or repeated difficulties in relationships. The focus stays on the person's present goals and choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and agree a way forward that fits the client's needs, goals and preferences. That conversation is collaborative and adjusted as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow check-ins during a lunch break or quieter moment. Some people prefer shorter, phone-based check-ins when bandwidth or a quieter room is needed, while others opt for longer conversations by video. Discuss practical arrangements when booking to choose what suits daily life best.
