About David
David Wilson is a counsellor with nine years of experience supporting people facing anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and major life changes. He works in a warm, person-centred way and focuses on helping clients understand what drives their panic and anxiety so they can take small, workable steps forward.
He draws on a mix of approaches to suit each person’s needs rather than using a single method for everyone. Sessions tend to be conversational and practical, with time spent identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying out different ways of coping. He also supports people dealing with grief, relationship breakdown, parenting pressures and work-related stress.
David is accredited with the NCPS, which is shown as NCPS in his credentials. He speaks English, Dutch, German and Italian to varying degrees, and for clients from the EU he provides counselling in English only. He has lived in several European countries and uses that cultural experience in his work.
He has a particular interest in Highly Sensitive People and parents of Highly Sensitive Children, and has helped many people after emotional abuse, betrayal or separation. That interest shapes how he plans sessions and the kinds of strategies he suggests.
In the first meetings he helps people set clear, realistic goals and decides together what to focus on. He aims to empower clients to try new behaviours between sessions and reviews what is and isn’t helping as therapy progresses.
How these approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding your perspective and meeting you with empathy and respect; it helps when someone needs space to talk and to be heard without judgement. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and offers practical techniques to reduce anxiety and panic, such as testing out new ways of thinking and small exposure tasks.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose which methods to try based on goals, symptoms and personal preferences. That means checking what helps early on and adjusting the plan if something is not useful.
Confirm the available session formats before booking as the biography does not specify them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - sessions can be scheduled around work, offer a shorter check-in when time is tight, and avoid travel time. Many people find that talking from a familiar place makes it easier to practise coping skills between sessions and to carry learning into everyday routines.
