Danny Byrne

Danny Byrne is a BACP credentialled counsellor who helps adults carry less of what feels overwhelming. He focuses on anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, addictions and anger, and works in a straightforward, non-judgemental way. His style aims to be practical and calm so people can start to notice change sooner.

Danny uses clear tools from cognitive behavioural therapy alongside a client-centred approach that prioritises understanding. He pays attention to how early attachments shape current relationships and reactions. Sessions combine grounding skills, practical steps and reflective conversation to break unhelpful cycles.

Many people come for help with stress, grief, low self-esteem or problems with sleep and eating. He also supports those facing career change, neurodiversity-related concerns, and issues linked to adoption, attachment or past abuse. Anger and coping with life changes are part of his regular caseload.

Over eight years Danny has worked with a wide range of concerns using accessible techniques rather than clinical jargon. He aims to help people spot their strengths and build on them. Progress tends to come from steady, practical work between sessions as well as in them.

If someone wants to start, Danny asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a session. The process is set up so people can find a pace that fits their daily life and commitments.

How Danny’s approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current reactions and connections; in sessions this means noticing patterns and gently testing new ways of relating. Client-centred therapy offers a listening, non-judgemental space where the person’s own goals guide the work and pace. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) brings practical techniques to change thoughts and behaviours, useful for anxiety, anger and unhelpful routines.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods to a person’s goals, preferences and day-to-day needs. It is common to try different steps and agree on what to keep or change as therapy progresses.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work or caring duties and avoiding travel time. Some people prefer shorter check-ins by phone when they need a quick update, while others opt for video when they want a fuller conversation. Confirm the current session options during booking so you know what formats are available and can pick what suits your routine.
