Daniel Gunn

Daniel Gunn is a counsellor who helps people manage anger, stress and other strong emotions. He works with adults and listens for what matters most to each person. Daniel aims to make the first steps straightforward so worried people know what to expect.

He draws on nine years of clinical experience, including agency work and private practice. Daniel holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the Open University and a diploma in therapeutic counselling from CPCAB UK. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Daniel uses a mix of approaches to suit different needs. He offers Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work, Emotionally-Focused methods and client-centred practice. Sessions often include learning self-regulation techniques before tackling deeper material.

His background living and travelling across cultures shaped his interest in how relationships and early experiences affect mood, anger and grief. He also draws on experience from customer service and health and safety roles when organising practical steps in therapy.

When trauma is part of the picture, Daniel approaches it through attachment, neuroscience ideas and paced therapeutic work. He aims to help people make sense of symptoms like anxiety, depression, grief, addictions and anger, and to find ways of living differently outside therapy.

To begin, people complete an online matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the usual process. Daniel works in English and German and accepts clients from outside the UK as well as within it.

How Daniel’s approaches translate to online therapy

Daniel commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based work and client-centred methods. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it supports commitment to small valued actions. Attachment-Based work focuses on patterns in relationships and how early connections shape current reactions, which can help with anger and intimacy struggles. Client-centred therapy offers a non-judgemental space where people set the pace and shape of the work.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Daniel will work together with each person to find what fits best, considering goals, life demands and personal preferences. That collaborative decision can change over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, for example by removing travel time or allowing a session during a lunch break. If you want to confirm which session formats are available, check the booking information before scheduling. The practical aim is to make therapy manageable alongside work, family and other responsibilities, while keeping the focus on clear steps and emotional regulation exercises that can be practised between sessions.
