Dan Entwisle

Dan Entwisle is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, family difficulties, grief and loss, depression, addictions and trauma. He also offers support around parenting, LGBT concerns and mood issues such as bipolar.

Dan uses several practical approaches in sessions. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of responding. He also uses client-centred skills to prioritise the person’s experience and motivational interviewing when someone needs to find the will to change.

Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Dan listens for what matters most and helps people set small, concrete steps they can try between meetings. He keeps explanations straightforward and breaks ideas down into manageable actions rather than long theory.

People who have experienced loss, family upheaval or repeated relationship problems may find the practical focus useful. Dan also supports those dealing with addiction-related issues and the stresses of caring for others.

He asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire before the first appointment so he can match approach to need. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary by location. Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Dan often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in his work. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values, which can be useful for stress, anxiety and problems with direction. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to break down thinking and behaviour patterns and to practise concrete changes that reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dan will discuss goals and preferences with each person and pick methods together rather than imposing a single model. That collaborative process helps shape session focus and the practical steps suggested between meetings.

The biography does not specify which online formats are used, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time from the routine. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, commonly adapt techniques such as ACT and CBT to remote sessions so that practical exercises and homework remain usable in everyday life.
