About Danielle

Danielle Hancock is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She works with adults who are facing addiction, relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and struggles with mood or self-worth. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.

Danielle draws on Client-Centred Therapy to keep sessions focused on the client's perspective. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas when relationships and attachment come into the work. She also brings elements of existential and Jungian thought for clients exploring meaning, identity and deeper patterns.

In practice she talks through present problems and how they connect to past experiences. That can include looking at attachment, abandonment fears, or how codependency shows up in daily life. For addiction and domestic violence concerns she works on coping strategies and clearer decision-making rather than quick fixes.

Danielle uses mindfulness tools to help with anxiety, stress and dissociation. She also offers narrative techniques to help people reframe difficult events and regain a sense of agency. Sessions aim to be straightforward and practical, with time set aside for problem solving as well as reflection.

Her approach includes coaching elements for people facing life transitions, such as separation, blended family tensions, or a cancer diagnosis. Clients are invited to shape the goals and pace of work so therapy fits with their everyday responsibilities.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a clear picture of what matters to the client. Online sessions using this approach tend to concentrate on the client's priorities and on making short-term plans that fit daily life.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at how attachment and emotion shape relationships. In remote sessions this can mean exploring patterns in how people relate, identifying core feelings and practicing new ways of responding that change interactions over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and help decide which methods suit the client's goals, needs and preferences. That choice is reviewed as work progresses so the approach can change if something else fits better.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also make it possible to continue working with the same counsellor from another location if circumstances change.
