About Daniel

Daniel Palmer is a counsellor who aims to make it easier to talk about hard things. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, depression and other concerns. He also supports people facing trauma, eating difficulties, relationship and intimacy issues, and questions about identity and self-worth.

Sessions focus on the person in front of him and what they want to change. Daniel draws on client-centred ways of working that place the person's experience at the heart of the session. He also uses solution-focused ideas to help people spot what is already working and build on it.

He has five years of experience in private practice and has worked with people in local services addressing trauma and sexual abuse. That practical experience shapes a calm, matter-of-fact style in sessions. Daniel aims to offer a non-judgemental space where clients can talk through difficult feelings and choices.

He accepts people from across the United Kingdom and supports international clients in English. Fees vary by location and sessions operate through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. If someone wishes to begin, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

People who want straightforward, conversational therapy may find his approach useful. He emphasises collaboration, gradual steps and practical strategies to help people feel more able to manage everyday pressures and long-standing problems.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centred therapy places the person's experience at the centre of each session, so online work focuses on listening, reflecting and following the client's lead. This approach works well for people who need time to feel heard and understood before trying new ways of coping.

Solution-focused therapy concentrates on identifying small changes that make a noticeable difference. Online sessions can be used to set short practical goals and review progress between meetings, which suits issues like stress, anxiety and day-to-day coping.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods feel most helpful, and may combine elements from both styles as needs and goals become clearer. This collaborative planning helps tailor sessions to personal preferences and practical circumstances.

The biography lists online, phone and face-to-face options, so confirm the specific formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins or longer conversations when needed. It also lets people continue sessions if they move location or are managing commitments that make in-person meetings difficult.
