About Daniel
Daniel Lawrence is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety and the knock-on effects these bring to everyday life. He supports those dealing with depression, grief, trauma, addictions and relationship difficulties. He also works with issues such as sleep and eating problems, self-esteem, career questions and coping with life changes.
Sessions are conversational and down to earth. Daniel aims to make sessions feel calm and manageable.
Background and approach
He listens first, then helps people notice patterns and try small, practical changes they can build on. His approach mixes person-centred listening with techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and emotionally-focused work. He also draws on existential ideas and mindfulness to help people find meaning and steady their mood.
Daniel tailors each session to the person’s immediate needs and longer term goals. Daniel has around eight years of professional experience and has worked across the NHS, community services and higher education wellbeing roles. That combination of hands-on practice and research background informs how he thinks about emotional problems and possible ways forward.
People coming to him can expect a collaborative, respectful space where worries are taken seriously and navigation is practical. If someone wants to explore why they feel stuck, try different ways of coping, or examine relationship patterns, he offers steady support and clear steps to move forward.
How Daniel’s approaches work in online therapy
Daniel commonly blends person-centred listening with cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness practice. Person-centred work means the conversation starts where the person is, focusing on what matters most to them and building trust. Cognitive behavioural techniques look at thoughts and behaviours that keep anxiety and low mood in place and offer practical tasks to try between sessions. Mindfulness introduces simple attention practices to reduce rumination and increase calmness.Finding the right mix often happens together, over the first few sessions. The therapist will check in about goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust based on what helps. This collaborative way of working aims to find methods that feel useful and realistic for everyday life.
Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from wherever is convenient. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins and when someone prefers writing over talking. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family and travel commitments, while still using the same therapeutic approaches.
