About Dan

Dan Entwisle is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. He uses a respectful, calm approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties and grief. He also supports people dealing with addictions, bipolar mood concerns and trauma related to abuse.

Dan aims to keep sessions straightforward and practical. He listens and helps clients notice thoughts and everyday habits that keep problems going. Together they look for small changes that can make daily life easier.

He tailors each plan to the person in front of him rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. That might mean using mindfulness practices to slow overwhelming feelings, or working on thoughts and behaviours that increase anxiety. He uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy among others.

Dan has worked with people facing family conflict, parenting strain, adoption and foster care issues, and challenges linked to ageing or caregiving. He also supports those dealing with body image, attachment or communication problems.

Sessions are offered in English and Dan accepts international clients. He does not take weekend appointments, so weekday scheduling is needed. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before arranging sessions.

Online approaches that focus on thoughts and habits

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts without getting stuck in them, and then take steps that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with worry, low mood and everyday coping. Client-Centred Therapy offers a listening, non-judgemental space where the person sets the pace while the counsellor reflects and supports personal insight.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dan will work with a person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. He adapts techniques over time, combining elements such as mindfulness, motivational interviewing or psychodynamic ideas when they seem useful for the person's situation.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a quick review is needed, or quieter, camera-free options if that helps someone focus. Registered or accredited professionals can guide which format is most practical while keeping sessions focused on day-to-day change.
