About Daniel

Daniel Lawrence is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. He also helps with grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, intimacy concerns, sleep and eating problems, ADHD and work-related strain. Daniel brings eight years of professional experience to his practice and holds BACP accreditation.

He writes plainly and listens closely. Sessions are collaborative and focused on what matters most to the person seeking help. Daniel aims to make emotional difficulties easier to understand and manage, using clear conversations rather than jargon.

Daniel blends person-centred care with practical techniques drawn from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy, alongside mindfulness and existential ideas. That mix lets him tailor work to each person - sometimes focusing on thoughts and behaviour, other times on emotions and relationship patterns.

He has worked across NHS services, community settings and higher education wellbeing roles, and has been involved in mental health research. This variety informs a flexible, informed way of working with different life situations.

In sessions Daniel offers a steady, respectful space to talk things through. He will help identify immediate coping steps and longer-term goals, and encourages people to take therapy at a pace that feels manageable. He also writes about wellbeing and practice on his professional site.

How approach and online sessions can work together

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises the therapeutic relationship and meeting the person where they are. It helps when someone needs a calm space to be heard and to make sense of their feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and is useful for managing anxiety, low mood and unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals and preferences and together they will try methods that fit those aims. That collaborative planning helps shape what happens in sessions over time.

Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so please confirm which online options are available before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, for example by avoiding travel or allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day. It can also let people use different techniques such as in-session cognitive work, emotion-focused conversation or guided mindfulness exercises without needing to attend a clinic.
