About Daniel

Daniel Dickson is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and issues around self‑esteem and motivation. Daniel also supports clients with LGBT concerns, relationship and family difficulties, and managing feelings such as anger and grief.

He sees clients as the experts in their own stories and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions are practical and straightforward. Daniel encourages small, manageable steps that feel doable in day-to-day life.

In conversation he focuses on what is happening now and what can be changed. He listens for how patterns of thinking and behaviour keep problems going. Together with a client he identifies clear goals and tries simple strategies to reduce immediate stress and improve coping.

Daniel has experience with a broad range of concerns including addictions, intimacy-related issues, eating problems, career questions, compassion fatigue and ADHD. He works in English and accepts clients from outside the UK as well as locally.

To begin he asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. He uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time, with fees varying by location.

Approaches used and what online sessions look like

Daniel uses evidence‑based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach is problem‑focused work that helps identify unhelpful patterns and replace them with clearer routines and responses. This method suits worries such as stress, anxiety and anger where concrete strategies can reduce immediate pressure.

He also draws on work that strengthens self‑regulation skills by teaching simple ways to notice and manage strong feelings. That can help when temper flares or resentment builds. These techniques aim to give short, repeatable tools rather than long explanations.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Daniel will talk with each person about goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. If something isn’t working he adjusts the plan together with the client so the work stays useful and realistic.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑ins where helpful. Registered or accredited professionals often find that remote sessions let people keep continuity of care when schedules or locations change.
