About Dan
Dan Entwisle is a counsellor (BACP) practising in the United Kingdom with five years of experience. He works with stress and anxiety, relationship tensions, family matters, grief, depression, addictions and trauma-related concerns. Dan also supports people dealing with parenting strain, bipolar-related issues, and LGBT matters. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.
Dan uses straightforward, conversational sessions where people can talk about specific problems. He listens to what matters most and helps identify practical steps to manage difficult feelings. Meetings tend to focus on small, doable changes rather than long lectures or technical language.
His background includes a mix of talking therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. He also draws on mindfulness and motivational interviewing techniques to help with motivation and present-moment coping. These approaches can be useful for anxiety, mood concerns and relationship difficulties.
Dan typically helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, try new behavioural experiments, and practise simple mindfulness exercises. He pays attention to family and attachment issues, adoption and foster-care related concerns, and the stresses faced by caregivers. He will discuss what to try first and check in about what is or isn’t working.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and cost varies with location. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session through the site.
How Dan uses evidence-based approaches in online sessions
Dan draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice what matters to them and take small actions aligned with those values. ACT often focuses on reducing avoidance and building willingness to face difficult feelings while carrying on with chosen activities.He also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to map the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT sessions typically include short experiments and practical strategies to challenge unhelpful thinking and test new behaviours. Client-Centred Therapy influences his way of listening, keeping the sessions focused on the person’s concerns and pace.
Working out which approach to use is a collaborative process. Dan will talk about the options, invite feedback and try approaches that fit a person’s goals and preferences. He checks progress and adapts the plan if something is not helping.
Please confirm the current online session options before booking, as the original profile does not list specific formats. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a workday, take shorter check-ins by phone when needed, or use video for more detailed conversational work. These practical benefits can make it simpler to keep therapy going alongside everyday commitments.
