About John

John Day works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by anger, stress or anxiety. He meets clients who are struggling with addiction, relationship strain, low mood, grief or big life changes. His style is straightforward and respectful, aimed at helping people make practical shifts that fit their daily life.

John uses conversation and structured exercises to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. He adapts each plan to what the person needs right now, rather than using a single template for everyone. This means sessions can focus on skills, new ways of seeing problems, or simply making sense of difficult experiences.

He draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques and acceptance and commitment methods to address unhelpful thinking and build flexible coping. Attachment-based ideas are used when relationships or intimacy cause distress. The overall aim is to help someone move toward things that matter to them while managing upsetting emotions.

John holds HCPC registration, which appears as HCPC in his credentials. He has five years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom. Sessions are conducted in English and he is able to work with clients internationally.

John encourages a collaborative process where people set the pace. He supports those who want practical tools, clearer perspective, and steadier emotional responses. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the booking process.

How therapy approaches guide online work

John uses cognitive behavioural ideas and acceptance and commitment methods to help people understand their thinking and make changes that matter. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and trying different actions to reduce distress and improve day to day functioning. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match what someone values, which can help with anger, anxiety and addiction.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels manageable, then try methods together to see what helps. This is a collaborative process and it may take a few sessions to settle on the most useful mix of approaches.

The original biography does not specify which remote session formats are used, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel. They also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, or for meeting without needing to travel to an appointment. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt materials and exercises so that therapy remains practical and focused, even when conducted remotely.
