Danielle White , BACP

Danielle White is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She brings seven years of counselling experience and a background in NHS practice and voluntary services. Danielle offers online and phone work as well as text-based options to suit different needs. She focuses on women's issues among a wider range of concerns and aims to make support practical and approachable.

She trained through several years of study to become an integrative counsellor, combining ideas from established approaches rather than relying on one method. Before training she worked in NHS doctors' surgeries and a secure adult forensics ward, roles that shaped her understanding of how stress and trauma can affect daily life. She also spent two years volunteering with charities, offering short-term counselling to people from varied backgrounds.

In sessions she concentrates on immediate, everyday problems as well as longer-standing patterns. Typical topics include anxiety and stress, low self-esteem, depression, grief, relationship and communication difficulties, and coping with life changes. She also helps people facing issues such as addiction, historic abuse, parenting strain, and intimacy-related concerns.

Danielle adapts her approach to each person. She uses attachment-informed ideas to look at relationship patterns, client-centred work to follow the client’s lead, and cognitive behavioural techniques to tackle unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Therapy is collaborative - she will listen, reflect, and suggest practical steps where useful.

Sessions are conducted in English and are available in a range of online formats. Danielle does not take international clients. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Danielle's approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-informed work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Danielle uses these ideas to help people spot repeating cycles in their close relationships and to try new ways of relating. Client-centred therapy places the person's experience at the heart of sessions. This approach means the client leads the pace and focus while the counsellor listens and reflects what matters most to them. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and then tests small, practical changes to improve day-to-day coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Danielle will discuss options and try methods that fit each person’s needs, goals and preferences. She sees therapy as a collaboration and will check in to shape the work as it progresses, adapting techniques if something is not helping.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what suits their life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a shorter break. Live chat or messaging can be helpful for quick check-ins or when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options make it straightforward to schedule around work, childcare and other commitments while keeping the focus on the therapeutic work.
