About Rhys

Counsellor Rhys Kain Danter is a BACP-registered practitioner with four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. He works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions and issues around self-esteem and motivation.

Rhys describes his practice as CBT-orientated while drawing on Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. He uses a variety of practical tools and techniques to help people with day-to-day coping and emotional difficulties. Sessions include some psychoeducation so clients understand the reasons behind suggested practices.

Rhys aims to help clients build practical coping strategies. He focuses on skills that can be used after sessions end as well as steps that support recovery and improved daily functioning. He says progress can take time and adapts his approach to each person’s situation.

In the room he offers a mix of talking and practical exercises. That can mean looking at thinking patterns, learning new behavioural skills, or practising acceptance-based ways of responding to difficult feelings. He plans work around the concerns the person brings.

Rhys also lists a broad set of additional focuses, from communication problems and isolation to chronic illness and grief. People who want therapy in English in the UK will find his practice described here. To confirm session types and timings, viewers should check the online counselling options before booking.

Therapeutic approaches and remote counselling

Rhys uses cognitive behavioural therapy to look at unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and to try practical changes that can reduce distress. CBT often suits people who want clear steps and exercises to try between sessions.

He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice their thoughts and feelings without being ruled by them, and then focus on chosen values and actions. ACT can help with ongoing anxiety, low mood or difficulties that don’t respond to trying to control every feeling.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. Rhys will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and agree together which methods to use. That collaborative process guides what techniques and exercises are introduced in sessions.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow a shorter check-in when needed. It can also let someone choose audio-only or video depending on bandwidth and comfort, though specific formats should be checked with Rhys when arranging sessions.
