Background and approach

He draws on approaches that focus on values, emotions and clear problem solving. People often come for help with life changes, addiction concerns, anger or parenting pressures. He also supports those dealing with isolation, attachment issues, communication problems and compassion fatigue.

Work can include looking at forgiveness, men's issues, and challenges faced by young adults. Therapy sessions are collaborative and paced to suit each person. David listens, reflects and offers exercises to practise between meetings.

The focus is on small, manageable steps rather than big promises. Sessions are offered in English by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Information about cost and how to begin is provided through the platform's booking flow.

Approaches used and how online therapy helps

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking steps towards those values even when feelings are difficult. It can help with anxiety, low mood and choices during big life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and build more effective coping strategies for stress, worry and depression.

Finding the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods to match your goals and preferences. Sessions aim to be collaborative, so you and the counsellor decide together what to try and when to review progress.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation when that suits you. Phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are available for shorter check‑ins, quick reflections or when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments, while keeping the focus on the work you want to do.
