About Tharani

Tharani (Dani) Fowkes is a counsellor registered with the BACP with seven years of professional experience in the UK. She helps people dealing with relationship strain, low self‑esteem, career uncertainty, depression and anxiety. Dani also supports those coping with life changes, trauma or issues around intimacy and sleeping.

She uses a practical, solution‑focused way of working that aims to identify small, concrete changes. Sessions focus on what the client wants to be different and on steps they can try between meetings. Conversations are direct and plain, with attention to everyday patterns and choices.

Dani pays attention to how people get stuck in people-pleasing or caretaking roles and how that affects mood and confidence. She talks through ways to set boundaries and to re‑centre priorities without moral judgement. Work can include looking at commitment worries, jealousy, or codependency-like patterns and how these play out in daily life.

Her style is action-oriented. She helps clients notice what already works for them and builds on those strengths. That might mean short experiments, shifting routines, or rehearsing conversations to gain confidence.

Dani offers counselling in English and German. People who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session through the online booking flow.

How sessions work

Solution‑focused approaches and online counselling

Solution‑Focused Therapy concentrates on practical change. It asks what the client wants to be different and focuses on small, achievable steps. This approach can help with relationship patterns, motivation, low mood and confidence by building actions that fit everyday life.

Working this way means sessions often look at what is already working and how to do more of it. The therapist and client decide together which strategies to try, then review what changed. That collaborative process helps match the approach to the client’s goals and preferences rather than imposing one fixed method.

Please confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑in meetings when needed. Some people find phone or video meetings useful when they want to focus on practical steps without a long commute. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt session pace and tasks to suit work, family or study schedules.
