About Daniel
Daniel Palmer is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of practice experience. He works with people struggling with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression and related concerns including social anxiety and phobia.
Daniel offers straightforward, one-to-one time to talk through what is causing difficulty. Sessions focus on the person in front of him and on practical steps that can make day-to-day life feel more manageable. He aims to help people find ways to cope better and to make small changes that matter.
He has run a private practice for five years and has also worked with survivors of sexual assault and abuse at local support services. That background means he is used to helping people who have experienced trauma and to those dealing with addiction or eating-related problems.
Daniel draws on client-centred work and solution-focused approaches. That combination keeps the conversation grounded in what matters now and in concrete next steps. He often helps people notice small shifts and build on them session by session.
People often come for issues such as low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy-related difficulties, grief, anger, or life changes. Daniel also works with people who identify as LGBT, men’s mental health concerns, and with those who are living with ADHD or autism-related challenges.
He provides sessions online, by phone and face to face. Before booking, clients are asked to complete a short questionnaire and then schedule a first session to see how the approach fits.
How Daniel uses client-centred and solution-focused work online
Client-Centred Therapy is about following the person's concerns and helping them feel heard. The counsellor reflects what comes up and helps the client decide which topics to focus on next. It is useful when someone needs space to talk and to make sense of feelings at their own pace.Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps that can be tried between sessions. It asks what is already working and how to build on it, which can help with issues like anxiety, stress and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Daniel will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and day-to-day needs and then agree on methods to try. That way the plan stays collaborative and adjustments can be made as things move along.
For practical matters, confirm which session formats are offered before booking. Online and phone sessions can make fitting counselling into a busy week easier, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a workday. They can also help when someone prefers not to be on camera or needs a call rather than video. These options aim to help integrate sessions into everyday life without promising a specific outcome.
