About Dayna

Dayna Landsborough works with people on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, anger and self-esteem using a person-centred, integrative approach. She draws on practical techniques as well as conversational coaching to help clients manage life changes and career concerns. Dayna is registered with NCPS and has three years of professional experience supporting mental health and wellbeing.

Dayna explains that she starts from the strengths and values a person already has. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps alongside talking things through. She uses skills for emotional regulation and communication to help people manage intense feelings and improve interactions with others.

Her work includes supporting LGBT concerns, sexuality, women's issues and people facing compassion fatigue. She also covers career worries and coaching-style conversations about next steps. Communication problems and relationship difficulties are a common focus in her sessions.

Dayna blends client-centred practice with elements from different approaches when useful. She mentions Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills for regulation, motivational interviewing for decision-making, and solution-focused work to set short-term goals. Sessions aim to be flexible in format and scheduling to fit a person’s needs.

People interested in meeting her are asked to use the site’s matching process to book. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Dayna uses a client-centred approach which focuses on listening, understanding a person’s priorities and working from the client’s own values. This helps with issues such as low self-esteem, relationship questions and coping with life changes.

She also uses Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills to teach practical techniques for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. These skills can be useful for managing intense emotions like anger, anxiety and grief.

Motivational Interviewing is another method she draws on to support decision-making and commitment to change. It is a collaborative way of helping people clarify goals and take small practical steps towards them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dayna will help clients choose which methods to try based on their needs, goals and preferences, and adapt as therapy progresses in a collaborative way.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow check-ins from different locations. They can also allow quieter, shorter check-ins when that suits a person’s schedule.
