Danielle Hall, BACP

Danielle Hall is a BACP-registered counsellor with six years' experience in mental health work. Danielle presents as warm and direct, and focuses on creating a listening space where people can talk about what matters to them. The first meetings are used to build trust and to agree how to work together.

Danielle adopts a person-centred attitude, which means the conversation is led by the client and their priorities. Sessions are practical and down-to-earth. Danielle borrows tools from solution-focused and mindfulness approaches to help people manage symptoms and find clearer ways forward.

Clients often bring relationship and intimacy concerns, including matters related to sex, gender and kink. Danielle also supports people with anxiety, stress, depression, bipolar mood difficulties, ADHD and trauma and abuse. She pays attention to how identity and life roles shape day-to-day struggles.

Therapy sessions mix quiet reflection with focused goal work. Danielle uses simple exercises in mindful awareness and short, solution-focused tasks between sessions. Creative approaches such as music or drama may be suggested when they suit a persons style.

Practical matters are discussed openly at the outset, including session format and boundaries. Danielle welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and invites honest conversation about identity and values. The aim is clearer self-understanding and more workable day-to-day choices.

People typically find the work most useful when they want a relational counsellor who listens first, then helps plan next steps. Sessions are conducted in English and can be arranged to fit differing schedules and locations across the United Kingdom and beyond.

Person-centred and practical approaches for online therapy

Danielle draws primarily on Client-Centred Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her online work. Client-Centred Therapy means the counsellor listens without judgement and follows the client's lead to build understanding and trust. It suits people who need an accepting space to talk through identity, relationship or emotional issues. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, practical changes and short-term goals. This approach helps when someone wants to try specific steps to reduce stress, repair communication or manage symptoms between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Danielle will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will decide which mix of listening, mindful practice or short-term tasks feels most useful. The work can shift over time as needs change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection helps. Phone sessions are useful when lower bandwidth or hands-free time is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, reflective exchanges and people who prefer writing as their main way to communicate. These options help fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments.
