Counselling
and Psychotherapy
We all experience pain and distress in our lives sometimes. We may feel stuck, overwhelmed and unable to cope any longer. Therapy offers a path towards positive change and deeper understanding. Contacting me (for a free 20-minute consultation) may be the first step in moving your life forward again.
I believe therapy should be available to everybody and everybody can benefit from therapy. By reconnecting with yourself and with others, the benefits of therapy can extend far beyond the therapy room. When you find who you really are, you have more choices and then you can decide what direction to go in. You can be in charge of your life again.

Hi, I’m Dan
People tell me I have a warm, kind and calming presence and that my compassion for others comes across as a big part of who I am.
I’ll accept you as you are and I’ll provide a safe space for you to talk about your situation. I’m fascinated to get a sense of what it’s like to see the world as you do, without judgement but offering empathy and understanding.
I like to bring my personality to our sessions, but I will always offer a sympathetic presence and be attentive and respectful to the seriousness of your situation.
MY AIMS FOR THERAPY
To provide the opportunity to develop a therapeutic relationship, in which together we can:
Help you to feel differently.
Help you gain relief from the pain and distress of your situation, so you don’t feel trapped by your emotional reactions.
Increase your self-esteem and confidence.
Work towards a greater understanding of your Self, the part you play in your situation and what your problems are.
Help you regain your ability to cope with life, and to move forward with confidence.
Improve your relationships with others.
