Daiga Denton, BACP

Daiga Denton brings a lifelong interest in personal development to her work as a therapist, combining formal training with a deep commitment to supporting people through periods of distress and change. She graduated from the University of Nottingham in 2011 with a First Class degree in Humanistic Counselling and has since built a practice focused on anxiety, depression, relationships and a wide range of interconnected life challenges. Daiga holds the BACP credential - British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and has eight years of professional experience working with individuals and families.

Her approach is rooted in respect for each person as the expert on their own life. She views difficulties as signals that past experiences may be blocking access to an individual’s inner wisdom, and she works collaboratively to identify and remove those blocks. Rather than offering prescriptive advice, she supports clients to explore how their feelings and patterns developed and to discover their own answers for moving forward.

Clients who work with Daiga can expect to deepen self-understanding, increase self-acceptance and build greater confidence and resilience. Her practice addresses stress, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, intimacy and many other concerns, always attending to the whole person and the context of their life. Daiga welcomes clients seeking practical, empathic, and thoughtful therapeutic support.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Daiga Denton draws on client-centered therapy to place the person at the heart of the process - this approach emphasizes empathy, active listening and collaboration so clients can explore their own values and solutions, often helping with issues like low self-esteem, life transitions and relationship concerns. She also integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), which focuses on identifying and shifting emotional responses in relationships and individual patterns, useful for improving attachment, intimacy and communication. Mindfulness therapy is used to develop present-moment awareness and practical skills for managing stress, anxiety and persistent negative thinking.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Daiga works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best with their needs, goals and preferences. She tailors methods over time, adjusting focus as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place via video calls, by phone, through live chat or by text-based messaging - making it easier to access consistent support across different schedules and locations. Licensed professionals can effectively adapt these approaches to online formats, allowing clients to work on emotional insight, coping strategies and relationship patterns from home or while traveling.
