About Daniel Gunn

Daniel Gunn is a United Kingdom based psychotherapist who brings a broad, culture-aware perspective to therapeutic work. He is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and offers a collaborative, person-focused approach that blends psychological theory, body-based methods, and practical self-regulation skills.

He works with adults from diverse backgrounds, supporting people with a wide range of concerns including trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, addiction, grief, mood disorders, ADHD, and challenges around intimacy and parenting. Daniel has experience facilitating and supervising groups as well as working in private practice and agency settings, seeing clients across the adult lifespan.

Daniel trained in psychology, receiving a BSc in psychology in 2015, followed by a diploma in therapeutic counselling from CPCAB UK in 2017 and a postgraduate diploma in psychopathology theory and practice from CONFER UK in 2020. His training draws on both ancient wisdom and contemporary science, and he integrates methods such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), attachment-informed work, body-focused and somatic approaches, experiential therapies, internal family systems ideas, mindfulness, and trauma-informed practices.

Since 2020 he has focused increasingly on trauma, working with post-traumatic stress, attachment-related difficulties, complex developmental trauma, and associated symptoms such as shame, anger, anxiety, pain, and sexual issues. With client permission, he tailors treatment holistically - considering biological, psychological, social, identity, intuition, and spiritual factors - and balances top-down and bottom-up methods to help clients make changes that carry over into everyday life. Daniel offers assessment, teaches self-regulation techniques, and progresses to deeper trauma work where appropriate, aiming to reduce suffering and help people re-engage with life.

Therapeutic Approaches and How They Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and build practical skills to act in line with those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. It is useful for anxiety, stress, depression, and situations that involve difficult decision-making or life changes.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of relating that begin in early relationships and shape current connections. It helps people understand relational triggers, strengthen emotional bonds, and work through attachment injuries that contribute to relationship conflict, loneliness, and intimacy issues.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on identifying, expressing, and transforming core emotions within relationships and the self. It is aimed at improving emotional connection and reducing cycles of distress that fuel conflict, avoidance, or withdrawal.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Daniel works collaboratively with clients and registered professionals to explore needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods over time so therapy fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone allow for face-to-face interaction at a distance, while live chat and text-based messaging provide accessible ways to reflect between meetings or when scheduling is tight. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care across locations and life circumstances while supporting meaningful therapeutic progress.
