About Danny

Danny Byrne is a BACP counsellor who helps adults move through anxiety, depression, trauma and addictive patterns. He uses a straightforward, practical style and focuses on small changes that make day-to-day life easier. Conversations are down-to-earth and free of jargon so people can get to what matters quickly.

Danny combines cognitive behavioural techniques for structure and tools with person-centred methods that emphasise listening and understanding. He also draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how past relationships shape current patterns. Together these approaches aim to reduce overwhelm, shift unhelpful cycles, and build clearer ways of coping.

He works with a wide range of concerns including stress, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, career strain, attention difficulties, eating and sleep problems, and codependency. Danny also supports people affected by trauma, and those dealing with identity and sexuality questions within LGBT contexts.

Over eight years in practice have shaped a pragmatic way of working. Sessions typically focus on what feels most pressing and on practical steps to test between meetings. Clients are invited to learn simple tools, notice patterns, and try new responses in everyday life.

Danny accepts international clients and offers sessions in English. To begin, prospective clients use the site Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How his approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and patterns. Online conversations can help identify those patterns and offer different ways to connect and respond in present relationships.

Client-centred counselling focuses on empathic listening and supporting a person's own pace of change. In remote sessions this means the counsellor follows what the client brings, using questions and reflections to clarify feelings and goals.

Cognitive behavioural methods provide practical tools and steps to try between sessions. Exercises might include simple behavioural experiments, thought records, or paced breathing work adapted to what the client can do at home or during a break.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will work with the client to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan as those needs change.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the exact options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into a busy life because it removes travel, can be scheduled at different times of day, and allows shorter check-ins when needed. Registered professionals can adapt exercises to suit quieter surroundings, lower bandwidth, or moments when being off-camera helps concentration.
