About Daniel

Daniel Gunn is a BACP psychotherapist who helps people troubled by anxiety, stress and panic-related difficulties. He speaks English and German and works with adults from varied cultural backgrounds. Daniel focuses on practical steps to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day coping.

He trained in psychology with a BSc from the Open University and holds a diploma in therapeutic counselling from CPCAB UK, plus a postgraduate diploma in psychopathology theory and practice. He has nine years of experience across agency settings and private practice, and has led and supervised groups.

Daniel draws on a mix of approaches to meet each person’s needs. He teaches self-regulation skills early on, then uses deeper therapeutic work when ready. Sessions move between noticing bodily responses and talking through thoughts and emotions.

Trauma has been a major focus of his recent work, and he uses attachment-informed ideas to understand how past experiences affect present relationships and reactions. He aims to help people make practical changes that carry into everyday life.

People who choose him can expect a collaborative style. Assessment and discussion set the direction, and work is adapted to the person rather than shoehorned into one method. The emphasis is on managing symptoms, building resilience and helping people engage more fully with life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult feelings while committing to actions that reflect their values. It is useful for anxiety, panic and life transitions because it teaches skills to notice thoughts without getting driven by them. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It is helpful when worries, panic or relationship problems feel tied to past hurt or attachment needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that suit the person’s goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative conversation rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break. If you are considering remote work, confirm the exact session formats before booking so you know how sessions are arranged. Many people find that learning self-regulation skills and practising between sessions transfers well to everyday situations when therapy fits more easily into their routines.
