About Daniel
Daniel Whitelaw is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with five years of professional experience. He focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. He aims to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity and compassion.
Daniel adapts sessions to what each person needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. He works with clients to shape conversations and goals so therapy fits their situation.
Background and approach
That might mean pacing work differently, focusing on practical coping skills, or taking time to process painful experiences. His practice also addresses related concerns such as abandonment and attachment issues, guilt and shame, life purpose, men’s issues, social anxiety and phobia, and the emotional effects of chronic pain, illness and disability.
Daniel says these areas often overlap, so he looks at the whole picture when planning sessions. People who come for help can expect a calm, respectful approach that aims to make talking easier. He supports people through difficult decisions like divorce and separation, and through recovery from post-traumatic stress.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and Daniel’s stated aim is to support that step without judgement. He works collaboratively to build a plan that feels manageable and relevant to each person’s life.
