Background and approach

He has worked with people who are coping with autism and gender identity questions. Danny also helps with relationship worries, body image and the strain that follows separation or loss. He pays attention to issues like guilt, shame, loneliness and life purpose.

Danny uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person. He explains options in plain language and checks in about what feels useful. Sessions are collaborative - goals and methods are decided together, not imposed.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. The format chosen is matched to the person’s needs and day-to-day routine. Getting started involves a short questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment via the Start Therapy button.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Two common evidence-based approaches used in this practice are problem-focused techniques and supportive, person-centred work. Problem-focused techniques break concerns into manageable parts and identify concrete steps to reduce symptoms like anxiety or stress. Person-centred work focuses on listening, building trust and helping the person decide what matters most to them.

These methods are offered collaboratively. The therapist will discuss options, explain how each approach might help, and agree on a plan together with the client. Adjustments are made as the work continues so the approach stays matched to evolving goals and preferences.

Online therapy is offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for a full-session conversation similar to face-to-face work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, follow-ups or people who find writing helps them organise thoughts. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and busy days while keeping the focus on practical progress and emotional support.
