About Daniel
Daniel Dumitru is a BACP counsellor with 15 years of practice in the United Kingdom. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety and low self-esteem. He also supports people facing depression and difficulties with motivation and confidence.
Daniel aims to create an open, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings. He encourages practical steps and small changes that add up over time. He emphasises listening first, then working together to set useful goals.
Background and approach
Over his career he has helped people with life transitions, relationship concerns and workplace strain. He also supports those coping with trauma, sleep problems, anger and parenting challenges. Coaching around career direction and life purpose is part of his offering too.
Daniel draws on several approaches to suit different needs. He often uses client-centred methods to build rapport and CBT techniques to address unhelpful thinking patterns. Solution-focused work helps with setting short-term goals and tracking progress.
Sessions are designed to be clear and down to earth. Daniel keeps language simple and practical. He works at a steady pace and adapts to each person’s situation and preferences.
How Daniel’s approaches translate to online therapy
Daniel uses client-centred work to prioritise what matters to each person, providing space to be heard and acknowledged. This approach suits people who need an empathetic listener before making changes. He also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, which can be useful for anxiety, sleep problems and low mood.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Daniel talks with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggests methods to try. He checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what helps most, so therapy evolves with the client's needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and shared materials, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and travel commitments, while keeping the focus on progress and practical steps.
