About Daniel
Daniel Gunn is a BACP-registered counsellor with nine years of experience. He works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship concerns, addiction, and anger. Sessions are offered in English and German, and he accepts international clients.
Daniel draws on a mix of talking therapies and body-aware methods. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based work, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Client-Centred approaches, and Existential ideas to help people make sense of their feelings. He also includes trauma-informed tools when needed.
His background includes a BSc in psychology from the Open University and a diploma in therapeutic counselling from CPCAB, followed by a postgraduate diploma in psychopathology theory and practice. He has worked in agency settings and private practice and has experience running groups and supervising others.
In session he focuses on practical self-regulation skills before moving into deeper material. That can mean learning simple techniques to calm the body, then talking through where anger or overwhelm comes from. He describes working both bottom-up and top-down to balance feeling and thinking.
Daniel pays attention to a person’s life context, culture and past relationships when looking at problems such as attachment wounds, trauma-related stress, or difficulties with intimacy. He encourages small changes to how people act outside therapy so they can test new ways of relating and coping.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session where a fuller assessment is made and next steps are agreed.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Daniel often offers approaches that focus on thoughts, relationships and present felt experience. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and pick small values-driven actions to try instead. Attachment-Based work looks at how early relationship patterns shape responses to others, which can explain recurring anger or distance.Client-Centred work places emphasis on listening and reflecting what matters to the client so they can make sense of their own experience. These methods can be combined over time depending on the issue, for example pairing skills to reduce arousal with exploration of relational patterns that keep anger active. He treats choice of approach as a collaborative process and will work with clients to find what fits their goals and preferences.
Practical benefits of working online include easier fitting of sessions around work, the option of quieter surroundings that suit the person, and the ability to have shorter check-ins when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals will often adapt exercises and pacing for digital sessions so people can practise techniques between meetings and test new ways of reacting in day-to-day life.
