About Daniel

Daniel Garcia Higuera is an NCPS counsellor working in the United Kingdom. He provides therapy in English and Spanish and draws on six years of professional experience to support people facing a wide range of life stresses. He offers practical conversations and tools aimed at reducing anxiety, managing cravings, and improving day-to-day coping.

Before practising as a counsellor he completed a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and multiple master's programmes, including Clinical Psychology and Third Wave Psychological Therapies. Daniel has worked with people who have had addiction problems, mood difficulties, eating and sleep disorders, cancer-related distress, and problems with emotional dependence and communication.

In sessions he uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside mindfulness and emotion management techniques. He focuses on helping people build skills they can use between meetings and on simple ways to change unhelpful patterns.

People seeking help for relationship strains, jealousy, grief, parenting stress, or career pressures will find practical strategies and supportive listening. Daniel also works with issues such as ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue, tailoring the work to each person’s goals.

His style balances a direct focus on problems with an openness to people’s values and life context. Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to match what someone feels ready to address. To start, users complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to his availability.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values; it is often used for anxiety, depression and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems going, and it can be useful for anxiety, sleep and eating difficulties. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) attends to emotional experience and patterns in close relationships, helping people understand and shift responses that cause distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Daniel will explore goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then tailor methods collaboratively rather than imposing one style. Sessions can mix techniques so the plan matches what a person needs over time.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow people to choose a quieter moment for a check-in; it also lets some sessions focus on brief practical skill-building rather than lengthy travel. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practices and CBT worksheets to an online setting so people can practise between meetings and track progress.
