Evidence-Based Techniques Delivered Online

Daniel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and insight to address common difficulties. One approach emphasises structured, skills-focused work to help people recognise and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns that contribute to anxiety and low mood. Another approach is trauma-informed work which supports exploration of past hurts and how those experiences affect present-day feelings and relationships. A third strand draws on attachment-informed thinking to help clients understand relationship patterns, abandonment concerns, and issues with trust and intimacy.

Finding the right combination of techniques is part of the therapeutic process. Daniel works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses to ensure the approach remains relevant and helpful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and some work can be managed through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to access consistent support around work, caregiving, or mobility constraints, while allowing registered professionals and therapists to tailor the format to each client's lifestyle and therapeutic goals.
