Danielle Montano , BACP, NCPS

Danielle Montano is a compassionate therapist based in the United Kingdom who brings a humanistic lens to her counselling practice. With a background in humanistic counselling and advanced study in psychology, she supports people working through stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and body image issues, addiction, depression, ADHD, grief, and a broad range of family and life transition challenges. Her approach focuses on understanding each person’s unique worldview and the patterns that shape choices and behaviour, so clients can make decisions that align with their values and goals.

Danielle emphasises autonomy and respects each individual’s capacity for self-direction while offering a collaborative therapeutic space for personal growth. She is a registered member of the BACP, which signals professional membership in a UK counselling association, and holds NCPS accreditation, demonstrating recognised professional standards. Her formal training includes a first-class BA (Hons) in Humanistic Counselling, an MSc in Psychology, training as a mindfulness practitioner, and certification as a life coach—qualifications that inform a grounded, person-focused style of work.

Danielle accepts clients from the United Kingdom and internationally, and she offers flexible ways to connect so therapy can fit around daily life and practical needs.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Danielle uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and shift attention toward actions that reflect their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes where getting unstuck matters.

Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore how early relationships shape current patterns in relationships and emotional responses. This approach supports work on intimacy, abandonment concerns, trust, and family dynamics.

Danielle also works in a Client-Centered way, offering a respectful, nonjudgmental stance that prioritises the person’s own experience and pace of change. This style is helpful for building self-esteem, coping with grief, and navigating identity and communication issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Danielle collaborates with each client to identify which methods best suit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexibility by allowing connections through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, or mobility needs, and they allow people to access licensed professionals even when geography or schedules would otherwise be a barrier.
