Tharani (Dani) Fowkes, BACP

Tharani (Dani) Fowkes helps people who are struggling with relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, depression and major life changes. She also supports those coping with trauma and abuse, intimacy-related worries, sleeping problems and compassion fatigue. Dani works in both English and German and is based in the United Kingdom.

Dani keeps therapy straightforward and practical. She aims to build an open, non-judgemental space where people can talk honestly about what is hard for them. Sessions focus on small, realistic steps that lead to change rather than long discussions without direction.

Her main method is Solution-Focused Therapy, which looks for strengths and past successes to shape the next steps. She helps clients clarify what they want to be different and identifies simple actions to move toward that goal. This approach can suit issues such as motivation, confidence and relationship concerns.

With seven years of experience and BACP registration, Dani brings steady support to the conversation. She listens for patterns that get in the way and offers practical ideas to try between sessions. Clients can expect clear goals and gentle accountability as part of the work.

Dani also addresses a range of additional concerns including avoidant personality traits, blended family tensions, cancer-related distress, codependency, commitment worries, multicultural and discrimination issues, jealousy, fatherhood questions, seasonal affective disorder and self-harm thoughts. She tailors the pace and focus to each person’s needs.

Solution-Focused work online and flexible session options

Solution-Focused Therapy searches for what is already working and builds on it. The focus is on identifying small, practical goals and steps that move a person toward their preferred outcome. This approach can help with issues such as motivation, confidence, relationship worries and coping with life changes.

In practice Dani uses short-term, goal-oriented techniques to keep sessions directed and useful. She helps clients notice strengths and past successes and then plans manageable actions to try between sessions. That collaborative planning makes it easier to measure progress and adjust the approach if needed.

Online therapy offers a range of ways to connect that suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and fuller conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it simpler to fit support around a busy day or to reflect in writing rather than speaking.

Finding the best approach is part of the process; the therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences and practical circumstances. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often tailor the mix of video, phone and messaging to keep therapy effective and workable for the individual.
