About Daniel
Daniel Childs is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 12 years of professional experience. He holds the NCPS credential and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, bereavement and trauma. He aims to be warm and approachable so clients can feel at ease from the start.
Daniel works in a straightforward, down-to-earth way. He listens first, then helps people set small, practical goals. Sessions are conversational and tailored to what each person needs rather than following a rigid plan.
Background and approach
His background includes supporting people with relationship difficulties, intimacy concerns, addiction, eating and sleeping problems, and parenting stress. He also offers help with career worries, low self-esteem, and coping with life changes such as illness or bereavement. Daniel uses a range of approaches depending on the issue.
This can include client-centred discussion to build understanding, cognitive behavioural techniques to change unhelpful thinking, and trauma-focused work for people affected by past harm. He also draws on psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused steps when these suit a person’s goals. If someone prefers online sessions, Daniel works with video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging.
International clients are accepted. To begin, a simple matching and scheduling process is used so people can find a practical time to start. Daniel aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk honestly about difficult topics and take clear steps forward.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Daniel will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That choice is made together and can be adjusted as progress is assessed during sessions.
Online sessions offer practical benefits that can fit into busy lives. Video calls let people keep visual contact, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports shorter, ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to schedule around work, caregiving or travel.
