About Daniel

Daniel Palmer is a counsellor who focuses on helping people through stress, anxiety, addiction and relationship difficulties. He uses straightforward, conversational sessions to help people find practical ways to feel better. Daniel aims to make the first step easier for anyone feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to turn.

He works from a client-centred stance, meeting each person where they are and shaping sessions around their needs. That means listening closely, reflecting what matters most, and helping people set small, manageable goals.

Background and approach

Sessions can include discussion, practical problem solving, and checking what works between meetings. Daniel has worked in independent practice for five years and has experience supporting survivors of sexual abuse and people who have attended local trauma services. That background informs how he responds to distress and to the lasting effects of difficult experiences.

He also offers support around eating concerns, body image, anger and grief. He uses solution-focused methods when clients want to move quickly towards change. This approach looks at strengths and past successes to build practical steps forward.

It often suits people who want brief, goal-orientated work alongside longer conversations. Sessions are available in English and can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Daniel accepts clients across the United Kingdom and from other countries.

To begin, a short online questionnaire helps match people and then sessions are scheduled according to availability.

How Daniel’s approaches work online

Daniel uses client-centred work to build a trusting conversation where the client leads the topics and pace. This approach focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can better understand what matters to them.

He also uses solution-focused techniques to highlight strengths and small steps that lead to change. This method is useful for people who want clear goals and practical actions to try between sessions, such as coping strategies for anxiety or plans to reduce substance use.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Daniel will discuss options with each person and tailor the work to their needs, goals and preferences. Together they decide whether to focus on short-term solutions, deeper exploration, or a mix of both.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for this work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation without travel. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging suit check-ins or people who prefer writing their thoughts. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around life commitments while staying focused on progress.
