About Danielle
Danielle (Dani) O'Connor is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and grief. Dani works from the belief that each person knows their life best and already carries strengths that can help them make change.
Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions aim to be a welcoming space where people can talk through painful memories, difficult decisions, or ongoing worries. Dani emphasises practical steps alongside reflection so people can feel steadier between appointments.
Dani draws on a mix of well-known approaches, including cognitive behavioural techniques for tackling unhelpful thinking, acceptance and commitment ideas for clarifying values, and attachment-focused thinking for relationship difficulties. She also brings elements from client-centred work to keep the sessions directed by the person in front of her.
People come to Dani with many different concerns, from depression, bipolar and ADHD to issues around intimacy, body image, addiction and parenting stress. She also supports those facing complex combinations of problems such as chronic illness or caring responsibilities. Dani aims to meet each person where they are and to help them find manageable ways forward.
Her style is steady, respectful and encouraging. She helps people notice what matters to them, try small changes, and build on what already works in their lives.
Approaches that translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people get clearer about what matters to them and commit to small actions that reflect those values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape feelings and behaviour, and it can help with relationship difficulties and trust issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and trying practical changes in behaviour to reduce distress, which can be helpful for anxiety and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dani aims to explore the best fit with each person, considering their needs, goals and preferences. She approaches this collaboratively and adjusts as therapy progresses so methods match what is helpful in practice.
The original profile does not specify session formats, so please confirm which online options are offered before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow follow-up conversations between meetings when appropriate. Different delivery styles also suit different moments - for example, a shorter check-in may fit into a busy day, while a longer session can give space for deeper reflection.
