How Danny’s approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy emphasises exploring how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people who notice repeated trust or closeness problems and want to understand and change those patterns.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathic listening and creating space to talk without judgement. This approach supports people who need acceptance, emotional clarity, and encouragement to find their own solutions.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) gives practical tools to change thinking and behaviour. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, unhelpful habits and managing day-to-day symptoms.
Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals, needs and preferences, and adapt the pace and focus as those needs change.
Online therapy can make sessions easier to fit into a busy life by reducing travel and offering more flexible scheduling. It also allows for options outside standard hours and can make short check-ins or focused skill-practice simpler to arrange. The biography lists video, phone and live chat as possible ways to meet, but confirm the current session formats when booking so arrangements match personal needs and technology.
