My intention is to help you see, hear and understand yourself more fully so that you are empowered to make choices, take actions and create relationships that serve your highest good.
Life can feel hard sometimes.
A crisis that throws everything we took for granted into the air, crashing us and our life into a million pieces.
A gnawing sense that we are running from ourselves, our past, things that we are scared to face but we know are dictating our current life.
A subtle but disquieting sense that life was supposed to be or feel different to this, that we are meant for more, but we don’t know what.
A realisation that our mind is at constant war with us and the fear and lack of peace that goes along with that.

Working together, I aim to offer you a better and healthier relationship that you may have had before, one that comes with a high regard for your well-being and your progression.
Hello, my name is Danny and I am a Counsellor based in Norwich. Starting counselling can feel challenging, and you may not know what to expect from your counsellor, or what their expectations are of you. My style of working is relaxed and informal. I’ll bring my authenticity to the room, and that’s all I ask of you. Through my personal and clinical experience, i’ve seen people get lost trying too hard or finding where they belong. This can also be seen in unhelpful behaviours where you try to fit in. I have a lot of success with clients going back to basics of who you are as an individual and not how you are for others.

Psychotherapy can help you to cope with and make sense of relationship difficulties and many other issues.
I have a particular interest in working with complex PTSD/ relational trauma. Symptoms may include hidden feelings of anxiety/dread, phobias & even fear of panic attacks in certain situations, whilst being successful in many domains of life. Avoidance of certain social situations that may seem perfectly safe to others create feelings of loneliness & despair.

Working online or in person in Norwich (Eaton, NR4), I work with adult individuals and couples to help them gently explore what's troubling them and to find a way forward.

As there is no one set way of being, I believe there is no one set way of working therapeutically with another, so our therapeutic relationship is important.

Through therapy we can explore whatever you bring, such as but not limited to trauma, abuse (of all kinds), identity issues, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, addiction, eating disorders & loss.

A good relationship with your counsellor is crucial for successful therapy.
We all know the routine: "How are you?" "I'm fine, thanks" – the standard response, hiding a deeper truth. Beneath the brave face, you might be feeling less connected to loved ones, friends, or even yourself. Sometimes anxious, as though in a crowded room, yet completely alone. Perhaps the energy needed to connect has disappeared, leaving you feeling less able to engage? Or, maybe you feel a sensation of emptiness or loss? Talking openly and honestly about your true feelings is always a daunting first step, but it's also the most important one towards feeling better.

If you feel like you’ve lost your footing in your relationships or your own skin, you don’t have to steady yourself alone.
I also offer a supportive space for women navigating the emotional impact of hormonal transitions such as perimenopause, PMDD, and POI. These shifts can feel disorienting and deeply personal. Together, we work to steady your footing and reconnect you with a clearer sense of yourself, navigating the 'identity lag' these changes often bring.

What types of relationship issues can therapists help with?
Therapists who specialise in relationships work with individuals, couples, and families on a wide range of issues. Common concerns include communication problems, infidelity, intimacy difficulties, and navigating major life transitions such as marriage, parenthood, or caregiving. Family therapists may also address parent–child conflict, sibling rivalry, or other complex family dynamics.
What are the different types of therapy for relationship issues?
Relationship issues can be addressed through different types of therapy depending on whether you’re seeking help as an individual, couple, or family. In individual therapy, the focus is often on helping an individual understand how their own patterns, attachment style, and past experiences may be shaping their current relationships. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), attachment therapy, and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) are three common forms of individual treatment that can help individuals understand their current relationship dynamics and improve their relationship quality. Couples therapy often uses other forms of evidence-based treatment, such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) or the Gottman Method. Rather than focusing on the individual, these approaches focus on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and strengthening emotional bonds between individuals in a relationship. Similarly, family therapy often focuses on communication but also examines how larger-scale dynamics—such as how parenting styles, generational differences, or sibling roles—may shape family relationships.
What actually happens in a therapy session for relationship issues?
The structure of a session depends on whether therapy involves one person or multiple people. In individual sessions, the focus may be on exploring personal patterns, role-playing difficult conversations, practicing listening skills, or setting goals for handling conflict. In couples or family sessions, each person is encouraged to share their perspective while the therapist helps uncover underlying emotions, highlight unhelpful interaction patterns, and guide more constructive communication.
How can I find an effective relationship therapist?
Finding a therapist who is a good fit for your needs, either for individual, couples, or family therapy, is critical to ensure effective therapy. Psychology Today’s online directory makes it easy to search for therapists who specialise in relationship issues, as well as related topics like marriage counselling. The platform offers filters to help you find a provider who fits your needs, such as gender, location, and fees. While the Psychology Today directory also offers the ability to filter by insurance type, it’s important to note that insurance may not cover many types of relationship therapy, such as couples counselling, so it’s important to inquire with your insurance plan about specific coverage details if intending to use insurance for therapy.
