About David
David Wilson is a counsellor registered with NCPS and has nine years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, parenting strain and anger. He also helps people dealing with relationship breakdowns and life changes.
He uses a mix of practical talking and structured techniques. Sessions focus on what is causing the frustration and what shifts are possible in everyday life. He draws on client-centred methods to listen and on cognitive tools to change unhelpful thinking patterns.
David also uses elements from dialectical behaviour approaches to teach coping skills for strong emotions. He pays attention to how attachment and past losses shape current reactions. That can help when anger is linked to feeling abandoned or betrayed.
He has worked with people affected by autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiving stress, cancer, and issues around fatherhood. He speaks English, Dutch, German and Italian, and notes he counsels EU clients in English only.
Sessions aim to be straightforward and practical. People often leave with clear steps to reduce tension, manage flare-ups, and improve communication with those close to them. To arrange a first meeting, David asks people to use the site's matching and booking process.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping people set their own goals. That approach is about understanding what matters to the client and building practical steps from there. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and try different responses in daily life. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and reducing reactivity, such as grounding and distress-tolerance techniques.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what matters to the client and try methods that suit their goals and situation. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and preferences become clearer.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use written exercises and worksheets during or between sessions to practise new skills in everyday situations.
