Daniel Day, NCPS

Daniel Day is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. He brings four years of clinical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, addiction and relationship difficulties. He aims to offer a straightforward and approachable space for people who feel ready to make a change.

Daniel’s background includes work in the Emergency Services for eight years followed by time with the Samaritans before he qualified as a counsellor. That path shaped how he listens and responds to people under pressure. He uses his experience to help people talk through immediate problems and longer-term struggles.

His main way of working is Humanistic and Person-Centred therapy. This means sessions focus on the person’s own goals, with the counsellor offering empathic listening and genuine presence. Where it helps, he may bring in psychodynamic ideas to understand patterns and history.

He commonly supports people facing life changes, feelings of emptiness or isolation, body image concerns, and problems with communication or commitment. He also has practice with addiction-related issues, first responder stress, and a range of attachment and personality-related difficulties.

Sessions are offered in English and are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Daniel works with adults and aims to create a calm, non-judgemental setting so people can speak openly about what matters to them.

If someone wants to start, the usual route is to complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange sessions according to his availability.

Client-centred support and online access

Daniel uses a Client-Centred approach that prioritises how each person experiences their life. Sessions focus on listening, understanding feelings and helping people set their own goals. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, relationship concerns and coping with life changes.

He also draws on Humanistic principles that emphasise genuineness and empathic presence during sessions. Where it is helpful, he may introduce psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring patterns and past influences on current feelings. These methods aim to give people clearer insight and practical ways to move forward.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt the way they work together over time. This shared decision-making helps ensure sessions fit the person’s needs.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules. Video is useful for a face-to-face feel, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and text-based options suit short check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These choices help make therapy more accessible around work, family and daily life.
