About David

David Dunlevy is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of clinical experience. He holds BACP accreditation, which shows he works within professional standards. David focuses on practical help for common problems so conversations are straightforward and to the point.

He helps people manage stress and anxiety and cope with depression. He also supports those facing grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and struggles linked to parenting and anger.

Background and approach

Addictions, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue are among other concerns he addresses. David uses several approaches to suit different needs, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Client-Centred work. Sessions aim to build clarity, improve communication, and develop coping skills that fit day-to-day life.

He keeps language simple and focuses on what will make a real difference for the person in front of him. People who feel isolated, are coping with attachment or communication problems, or are dealing with forgiveness and self-esteem issues may find his style helpful.

He also pays attention to young adult issues, men’s concerns, and self-harm risks when they come up in sessions. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and appointments are arranged after completing a short matching questionnaire.

Online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often used when someone wants to reduce avoidance and build a meaningful routine. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression and stress management.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences during early sessions and try methods that fit the person’s needs. Plans are adjusted as therapy goes on so the work stays relevant and practical.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and richer feedback. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text messaging suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options make it easier to arrange regular appointments and keep continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
