David Cuff offers counselling for a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. He also helps people struggling with grief, self-esteem, addiction, trauma and intimacy-related issues. Parents facing parenting strain, people managing ADHD, and those dealing with career or compassion fatigue challenges may find his approach useful.
David practises a humanistic, person-centred style that follows the client’s lead. He brings a gentle, non-judgemental attitude and an openness to lived experience.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on making sense of what has happened and finding ways to move forward in daily life. He believes the body holds experience, so feelings and bodily sensations are invited into the conversation alongside thoughts. This means practical attention to how someone notices emotions and reacts in the moment.
David also attends to relationship patterns and early life experiences that shape current behaviour. David describes himself as LGBTQI+ affirmative and respectful of neurodiversity, treating difference as variation rather than illness. He aims to be relational and holistic, noticing factors inside and outside the person that affect wellbeing.
He holds the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy accreditation, recorded as BACP. David has seven years' experience and works with adults in the United Kingdom. Sessions can be arranged online by following the platform process to match and schedule time with him.
Approaches online and what they offer
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and meeting the person where they are. The therapist offers empathy and acceptance so clients can explore feelings and make their own decisions; this can help with self-esteem, relationship questions and coping with change.Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) pays attention to emotional bonds and how people respond in close relationships. It helps people notice their feelings and make different choices in how they connect with others, which can ease relationship strain and problems with intimacy.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. David will talk with clients about what matters to them and try methods that fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape sessions so they remain relevant and practical.
Online formats give different ways to meet depending on need. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day, and live chat or text messaging can suit short check-ins or those who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life and keep contact consistent when in-person work is not possible.
