About Daniel

Daniel Lawrence is a counsellor with eight years of professional practice based in the United Kingdom. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship problems, addiction, trauma and related concerns. Daniel also supports clients with issues around self-esteem, parenting, sleep, eating, anger and ADHD. He holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded here as BACP. Daniel keeps sessions person-centred and collaborative. He listens first, then works with each person to decide practical steps and coping strategies. Techniques come from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and mindfulness, and he adapts methods to suit each person’s goals and pace. His background mixes clinical work and mental health research, and he has experience in NHS and community settings. That blend gives him a practical view of how life events and relationships shape mood and behaviour. He uses that context to help people make changes that fit their everyday life. Sessions focus on what is most pressing, whether that is reducing anxiety, managing mood swings, navigating loss, or improving communication. Daniel aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk things through without judgement. Starting therapy is treated as a step-by-step process. He helps people work out small, achievable changes and builds on progress over time. If someone wants to understand themselves better or find ways to cope, he provides steady guidance and clear options.

How therapy approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and understood. The counsellor offers a respectful, non-judgemental space and helps the person find their own solutions. This approach suits people who need time to make sense of feelings and decide next steps.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep issues and problems that benefit from step-by-step techniques.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the approach as needed. This is a collaborative process where preferences and progress guide choices.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact formats before booking, as the biography did not specify them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes practical adjustments possible, such as brief phone conversations if bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can offer the same evidence-based approaches online, adapting exercises and homework to suit remote work.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
