About Daniel

Daniel Lawrence works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, depression, addiction, trauma and abuse, intimacy and body image issues, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting strains, anger, self-esteem, career changes and ADHD. He uses a person-centred approach and draws on cognitive behavioural and emotionally-focused ideas to help people talk through problems and try different ways of coping. Daniel is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has eight years of professional experience.

He describes his work as collaborative. Sessions focus on what the client wants to change and on practical steps that can make daily life easier. Conversations can cover past experiences, current relationships, and everyday routines such as sleep, eating and work. Techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy are used to identify thought and behaviour patterns and to test small changes.

Daniel also uses emotionally-focused ideas to look at how feelings affect relationships and attachment. Mindfulness-based practices are offered to help with stress, anxiety and concentration. He combines these approaches with a client-centred attitude that places the person’s experience at the centre of the work.

His background includes work in the NHS, community services, mental health research and wellbeing roles in higher education. That mix informs a practical focus on coping skills and clearer communication. He invites clients to set goals and reviews progress together as work continues.

Sessions are presented as collaborative conversations rather than lectures. People can expect focused listening, practical exercises and reflection that link ideas to everyday life. To start, clients use the site buttons to complete a short questionnaire and book an initial appointment.

How his approaches work in remote counselling

Daniel commonly uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy in sessions. Client-centred work focuses on the person’s experience, listening closely to what matters and helping them find their own answers. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses small practical tasks to test changes.

He also draws on emotionally-focused ideas to explore how emotions shape relationships and attachment. That approach helps when relationship patterns or strong emotional reactions are getting in the way of day-to-day life. Together these methods aim to balance understanding with practical steps for coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and review progress in collaboration with the client. This helps shape sessions around what works best in practice.

Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and travel, and they allow for shorter check-ins when people need a focussed update rather than a full session.
