About Danny

Danny Byrne is a BACP counsellor who helps adults feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, relationship strain and addictive patterns. He uses plain language and practical steps so people can start making small changes quickly. Conversations are straightforward and non-judgemental, aimed at easing day-to-day pressure and improving everyday habits and thinking.

With eight years of experience, Danny combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for practical tools with Client-Centred Therapy to offer empathy and understanding. He also uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how past connections shape current relationships. Sessions focus on calming the nervous system, breaking unhelpful cycles, and building confidence through small, achievable steps.

Danny works with a wide range of concerns including stress, addictions, trauma, grief, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting strain, and relationship issues. He also supports people facing career pressure, compassion fatigue and challenges linked to neurodiversity such as autism and ADHD. Additional areas he attends to include abandonment, attachment issues, body image and intimacy-related matters.

Clients can expect a collaborative style where personal goals guide the plan. The therapist uses structured techniques alongside reflective listening to help people try new ways of thinking and behaving. Progress is framed in practical terms rather than labels.

Sessions are offered in English and Danny accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Prospective clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to availability.

Danny aims to help people move from feeling stuck to feeling lighter and more in control, one step at a time.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections shape current relationships and patterns. Online work with these ideas can help people notice repeated interaction styles and try different ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and habits; online sessions lend themselves well to working through specific exercises and homework between meetings. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises empathy and listening, with the therapist offering a steady, non-judgemental presence that helps people feel heard during video or phone sessions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to choose methods that match your goals, needs and preferences. Initial sessions are used to test what feels most useful and adjust the plan as you go.

Please confirm the current session options before booking, as formats supported by this profile are not exhaustively listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting and travel commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins by phone when bandwidth is limited, or full video sessions for in-depth work and practical exercises.
