Daniel Gunn is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps adults manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief and relationship difficulties.

He combines gentle listening with tools clients can try between meetings. Early work focuses on building safety and self-regulation, such as grounding and breathing strategies.
Background and approach
Later work looks at patterns in relationships, attachment, and past events that affect daily life. Daniel trained in psychology and therapeutic counselling and holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. He has experience in agency and independent practice settings and has worked with people from a range of cultural backgrounds.
His trauma-focused practice draws on ways of reconnecting mind and body, and on therapies that address how relationships shape feeling and behaviour. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred methods to help people clarify values and take manageable steps towards change. Sessions are practical and collaborative.
Daniel supports clients to understand what keeps problems going and to learn new responses. He encourages experimentation, small behavioural changes and a balance between thinking and feeling as part of everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Daniel draws on trauma-focused work that helps people make sense of past hurt and how it affects daily life. This approach often includes pacing, body-based grounding and careful revisiting of memories to reduce how upsetting they feel.He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-led steps even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early relationships shape current patterns and to build new ways of relating to oneself and others.
Finding the best approach is a joint process. Daniel will talk through options, try methods gently, and adapt the work to what suits each person's needs and goals. Clients help steer the focus, pace and tasks between sessions.
Online sessions offer flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, chat can suit short check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats help people fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel, and make it easier to maintain regular contact with a therapist.
