Testimonials

One of my best decisions was reaching out to Daniel. With his understanding and non-judgemental approach I’ve been able to tackle some very difficult times. I cant put a price on my sessions with Daniel, my life has changed for the better. Recognising Daniel’s openness, I’ve been able to relate and feel validated, this has been fundamental to my journey as I’ve been able to understand and accept some confusing and challenging moments in life. Daniel has allowed me to feel safe and supported when I express my true thoughts and feelings. I wouldn’t be where I am now if it wasn’t for Daniel.

What is unique about Daniel’s approach to therapy is the humanity and warmth he brings to every session. He has helped me through some incredibly tough times, especially my entry into motherhood and the extra vulnerabilities that can entail.  He has helped me to lighten some of the darkness I have carried throughout my life, listening and prompting me to me more curious rather than fearful. He is not afraid to ask the difficult questions, and open up dialogue to bring about real and lasting self change. As a result of my work with Daniel, I am so much more self compassionate and accepting of who I am.

 

My husband and I saw Daniel over several weeks during a difficult time in our marriage. We were struggling to communicate and the issues we were facing felt very overwhelming and often insurmountable. However, after just a few sessions with Daniel, the problems we faced no longer felt so challenging. He provided a safe, non-judgemental environment, which allowed us to more easily have the conversations we had been struggling with. Daniel is very warm and open, but also incredibly fair and reasonable. He encouraged us to really listen to each other in a productive and supportive way, making us both feel heard and validated. He also helped us to effectively examine our own personal behaviours, fears and habits, which I really appreciated. In the sessions with Daniel we were able to be much more honest and vulnerable with each other, and we are doing our best to take the lessons we learned into our day-to-day life. We would not hesitate to recommend Daniel to anyone, and he has been crucial in helping us reexamine our relationship and move forward together in a much healthier place.

‘We had known for a while that our communication had stalled and our relationship was suffering as a result. Contacting Daniel and starting couples counselling was the best decision we made. From the very first session his openness and non-judgemental approach put us at ease. He was able to be that fair and validating voice for us both, asking the right questions to help us articulate how and why we felt frustrated and disconnected. He encouraged us to really listen to each other, to actually hear and register the important bits that had been getting drowned out by busy lives and pent up feelings. The course of sessions with Daniel has been genuinely restorative and helped us ‘reset’. We’re so grateful - for his time, his flexibility and his candour - and wouldn’t hesitate to recruit his skills again in the future’.

'Thanks to Daniel my sleepless nights are very infrequent, in fact not at all. I never thought seeing a counsellor would enhance my wellbeing so much. Daniel really made a huge difference to my life - he inspired me'

‘Daniel helped me out of one of the darkest points in my life. He is genuine, kind and understanding, and helped me rationalise my problems and see the light at the end of the tunnel. Speaking to him was always the highlight of my week and he’s changed my outlook on life completely. I am a much happier and thankful person today thanks to him’

'Daniel helped me interrogate my actions around alcohol misuse. I was able to identify and address the consequences of my behaviours, both towards myself and others. I am now able to recognise certain events / situations / circumstances which are more likely to end negatively and take ownership of my decisions. Daniel's approach was supportive and observant. His help has been invaluable.'

"Daniel was a great help to me during a very difficult period of my life and gave me useful tools which have helped to limit the damage from bouts of emotional instability. He has a very warm demeanour and curated a secure environment where I felt comfortable to share my feelings and experiences. I would recommend Daniel as a therapist to anyone."
