About Me
Hi, my name is Daniel and I am a person-centred counsellor, which means I put you at the front and centre of your therapeutic journey offering you warm and safe space to talk. You are the expert on your life, and I am here as support on your personal therapeutic journey.
I have spent many years working in education as a teacher, primarily with children and young adults with additional learning needs, and as a mental health support worker with adults. This has helped me develop a very empathetic understanding of how factors like anxiety and stress can have a huge impact on our everyday lives in very individual ways.
I enjoy the outdoors and like to bring elements of nature into my therapeutic approach. I believe nature can be a great tool for inspiration and interpretation. If you are interested in Walk and Talk sessions I would be happy to discuss this during our early sessions together.
