About Davinia
Davinia Eccleston is a counsellor who draws on an integrative approach to support people through difficult times. She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and brings six years of practice experience to her work. Davinia aims to offer a calm and attentive space where people can speak about what matters to them.
Clients meet a counsellor who listens fully and responds with empathy.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what the person wants to change or understand. Davinia adapts methods to suit each individual rather than following one rigid model. Before moving into this role she worked as a clinical team leader in the NHS and provided counselling within general practice.
That background means she is familiar with common worries people bring to primary care and with practical ways to manage stress and mood problems. Her work supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, addiction and grief. She also helps with relationship struggles, parenting stresses, sleeping and eating concerns, workplace strain and major life changes.
Additional focuses include caregiver stress, immigration issues, prejudice and discrimination, and women's issues. In sessions she combines talking techniques that explore past experiences with practical strategies for coping now. The aim is to help people feel understood and to develop clearer next steps.
Adults who prefer online contact can meet by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.

Online support
Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions affect mood and behaviour. It uses straightforward exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful thinking and habits, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Davinia will discuss different methods and decide together which fits the person's needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative process often begins in the first few sessions and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video sessions enable face-to-face conversation, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is low, short live chats suit quick check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel, while still allowing steady therapeutic progress.
