He is registered with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and offers a compassionate, respectful approach to people facing a range of emotional and relational challenges.

His practice is person-focused and tailored to each client. Dan aims to listen with sensitivity and to create a therapy plan that fits an individual’s specific needs and goals. He accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.

Please note that he is unavailable for appointments on weekends.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Dan draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and take practical steps toward a more meaningful life, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. ACT is useful for anxiety, low mood, stress, and situations where someone wants to live more in line with what matters to them.

He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathic listening and a nonjudgmental attitude to help people explore their experiences at their own pace. This approach can be especially helpful for building self-understanding and strengthening relationships.

When appropriate, Dan integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms such as anxiety and depression. The choice and mix of these approaches are not fixed - finding the right fit is part of the therapeutic process. Dan works collaboratively with clients to select methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences, and registered professionals can adapt the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Dan is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited local options. These formats make it easier to access regular support, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care across different locations.
