About Dan

Dan Entwisle is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with five years of experience and a BACP credential. He focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family issues, grief, depression and addictions. Dan aims to offer a respectful, sensitive and compassionate space for people to talk through what matters to them.

Dan adapts the approach to each person rather than using a single method for everyone. He listens for what the person finds most helpful and builds a plan around their goals. Sessions are described in simple terms and designed to fit day-to-day life rather than unreadable jargon.

People bring a wide range of concerns to his work, including LGBT matters, trauma and abuse, parenting strain and bipolar challenges. He also addresses related areas such as attachment issues, communication problems, caregiver stress and bereavement. Dan pays attention to how past relationships and life events affect current feelings and choices.

His style blends talking therapy with practical tools. That can include noticing unhelpful thoughts, trying actions that match values, and learning ways to slow down and focus. Motivational approaches support change when people feel stuck or unsure.

Sessions are arranged to suit routine and availability, and Dan asks people to check current scheduling options before booking. He notes he is not available for appointments on weekends.

How Dan uses different therapy styles online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them, while focusing on actions that match personal values. It is often used for anxiety, stress and life direction. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and creating a supportive space so people can find their own solutions; it suits those who need time to make sense of feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses straightforward exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dan will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods that fit. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made or circumstances shift.

The profile does not list specific online formats, so please confirm session types before booking. In general, online working can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, keep appointments during busy weeks and reduce travel time. Some formats also work better for quick check-ins, while others suit deeper conversational work. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt sessions so the work is realistic for a client's routine and needs.
