About John

John Day is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people coping with stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship strain and depression. He works with clients who are processing grief, trauma and abuse, or who are facing changes like separation, midlife shifts and questions about life purpose. John holds HCPC registration and has five years of professional experience.

John meets people where they are and keeps conversations direct and respectful.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on what matters to each person, with space to talk about feelings like anger, guilt, loneliness or emptiness. He aims to make practical steps feel achievable rather than overwhelming. His approach draws on several evidence-informed methods.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps spot and change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports identifying values and taking action that matches them. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at relationship patterns and how they shape current connections.

John also uses client-centred listening to make room for each person’s story. Existential themes can be brought in when people struggle with meaning, purpose or identity. He adapts the mix of approaches to suit what a client needs most.

People often come for help with addictive behaviours, communication problems, social anxiety, intimacy issues and men’s concerns. He supports adults dealing with divorce, substance use, autism-related challenges and mood disorders. Conversations aim to leave people with clearer choices and practical steps forward.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Approaches and online support that suit your life

John uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try small behavioural changes that reduce anxiety and low mood. He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying values and taking steps that matter even when feelings are difficult. These approaches are useful for stress, anxiety, addiction-related behaviours and coping with life changes.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. John listens to what you want to change and what matters most, then tries methods that fit your goals and preferences. Together you can adapt techniques as you learn what helps and what doesn’t, so therapy becomes a practical partnership rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let you see and hear your counsellor in real time, while phone sessions work well when video isn’t possible or bandwidth is low. Live chat and text messaging can be used for shorter check-ins, notes between sessions or when writing feels easier than speaking. These formats provide flexibility for people juggling work, family or travel, and allow therapists registered or accredited in the UK to work with international clients.
