Background and approach

Danielle uses somatic ideas alongside client-centred listening to help people notice physical responses tied to stress and old patterns. Her approach also draws on emotionally-focused therapy to look at core feelings in relationships. Jungian and existential perspectives are sometimes used to explore meaning, personal stories, and how past experiences affect current choices.

This mix supports people facing grief, low self-esteem, anxiety, bipolar mood challenges, and life transitions. Danielle is experienced supporting people through family and blended family tensions, codependency, communication and commitment issues, and separation. She also has experience with substance use and domestic violence concerns.

Sessions can include gentle exploration, grounding techniques, and practical coping strategies. People who reach out will find a collaborative process. Danielle offers different formats for contact and tailors plans to individual goals.

She invites clients to take the next step when they feel ready.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Somatic-informed work focuses on the links between body sensations and emotions. Online sessions may include guidance to notice breath, posture or tension and simple grounding practices that can be used between appointments.

Client-centred therapy emphasises a respectful, non-judgemental conversation. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s priorities, helping people clarify goals and decide on next steps during remote sessions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at core feelings that drive our relationship patterns. In online sessions this can mean naming emotions, tracking interaction cycles, and rehearsing new ways of relating, which can help with intimacy and communication concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan as the work unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, and allow people to continue work from different locations or while travelling. Practical tools and exercises can be shared digitally for use between sessions, helping clients build skills over time.
