About Danielle
Danielle Montano trained in humanistic counselling and practises with a focus on helping people make clearer choices for their lives. She is a BACP member and holds NCPS accreditation, and she has ten years of experience in the field. Danielle uses straightforward language and a respectful approach when meeting new clients.
Her work centres on understanding how a person came to see the world the way they do. She helps people explore patterns that affect decisions and relationships.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to increase awareness and support practical, manageable change rather than offering quick fixes. Danielle draws on approaches such as acceptance and commitment work, attachment-based ideas, and cognitive behavioural techniques. She blends these with client-centred listening to match each person’s needs.
This mix is used to tackle stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and body-image issues, and addiction-related problems. She also supports people through grief, major life changes, parenting strains, career pressures, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include abandonment and attachment matters, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family issues, codependency, and communication difficulties.
Danielle aims to help people build clearer self-understanding and steadier coping skills. Sessions are delivered in English and Danielle accepts international clients. People interested in working with her begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions based on scheduling options.

How Danielle works online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating to others. It can support people who have difficulties with intimacy, abandonment concerns or repeated relationship patterns.
Client-Centred Therapy places the person's own perspective at the heart of sessions. The therapist offers attentive listening and reflection to help people find their own answers, which works well alongside other practical techniques like CBT.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then shape the blend of methods in collaboration with the client.
Please confirm available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible for people in different countries to work with registered or accredited professionals, while the practical structure of sessions is agreed between client and therapist.
