About Daniel
Daniel Lawrence is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with eight years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and loss, depression, and addiction. He also helps with intimacy-related issues, sleep and eating problems, parenting concerns, anger, self-esteem, ADHD and coping with big life changes. Daniel works in English and brings a calm, approachable presence to sessions.
He takes a person-centred approach, placing the relationship with the client at the heart of the work. Sessions focus on listening, building understanding, and helping people make small practical changes that feel manageable. Techniques are chosen to match each person’s needs rather than applied in the same way to everyone.
Daniel draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy and mindfulness practices alongside client-centred listening. These methods are used to help people notice unhelpful patterns, regulate difficult emotions and improve communication in close relationships. Work can include practical exercises and reflective conversation.
Before independent practice he worked in the NHS and community settings and has experience in mental health research and higher education wellbeing roles. That background informs a measured, evidence-aware style without losing human warmth.
He describes his role as offering a calm, grounded space to explore what brought someone to therapy. People are invited to set the pace and focus for sessions, with an emphasis on collaboration and clarity about next steps.

How his approaches translate to online work
Daniel combines client-centred listening with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in a way that fits online conversations. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and understood, helping people unpack what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name their emotions and strengthen how they connect with others.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods that match those needs. This is a collaborative process and can be reviewed as things change.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around busy lives, reduce travel time and allow short check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to use exercises and mindfulness practices during or between sessions to support everyday coping. Registered or accredited professionals can help you explore whether online sessions suit your circumstances and goals.
