Daniel Day is a counsellor who uses a humanistic, client-centred approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction and relationship difficulties. He holds the NCPS credential and has four years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. Daniel aims for a straightforward and compassionate style that lets people talk without feeling judged.

Before qualifying as a counsellor he worked for eight years in Emergency Services and later with the Samaritans.

Background and approach

Those roles shaped his comfort with intense emotions and crisis situations, and they inform how he listens and responds now. His practical background helps him remain calm and clear when conversations become difficult. In sessions he focuses on empathic listening and genuine presence.

He creates space for clients to say what they need to say and to notice what matters to them. When helpful, he also brings in ideas from psychodynamic work to look at patterns that repeat across relationships and life choices. Daniel has worked with people across a wide adult age range on issues such as eating concerns, parental stress, abuse and grief.

He also offers support around specific problems like body image, abandonment feelings, commitment and communication problems, and drug or alcohol addiction. He aims to make the first step easier by meeting people where they are and moving at a pace that feels manageable. The tone is warm and down-to-earth, focused on practical progress rather than jargon.

If someone is looking for a steady, empathetic listener, Daniel can walk alongside them through change.

Client-centred care delivered online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on a trusting relationship and empathic listening. The counsellor offers non-judgemental attention and helps people find their own answers, which is useful for stress, anxiety, relationship questions and low mood.

Elements of psychodynamic work may be included when helpful. That involves gently looking at repeated patterns or past experiences that influence current feelings and choices, which can help with issues such as attachment, abandonment or recurring relationship problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Daniel will work collaboratively to choose what feels most useful, adjusting methods to fit the person’s goals and preferences rather than imposing a single model.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls are close to face-to-face conversation and suit deeper work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging let people keep notes, reflect in writing and fit therapy around busy days. These options make it simpler to maintain continuity of care while balancing everyday commitments.
