Daiga Denton , BACP

Daiga Denton discovered an interest in personal development early in life, devouring self-help books and taking part in growth-focused events that shaped her approach to helping others. She graduated from the University of Nottingham in 2011 with a First Class degree in Humanistic Counselling, and she holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects her professional training and commitment to counselling standards.

Over eight years of practice, she has supported people seeking help for anxiety and depression while recognising that those difficulties often sit alongside other feelings and life challenges. Her work spans a wide range of concerns, because she sees each person as a whole individual whose current struggles are connected to past experiences and patterns.

Daiga practices from a humanistic stance, treating clients as the experts on their own lives and helping them uncover the internal wisdom needed for change. Rather than directing decisions, she assists people to identify the blocks that prevent access to their own answers, and to find practical ways to move past them. Through collaboration clients often develop greater self-awareness, self-acceptance, confidence, and clarity about next steps. She emphasizes understanding how people function, exploring the origins of difficulties, and supporting clients to discover paths toward healthier, more fulfilling lives.

Daiga communicates in English and Latvian, and she brings warmth, curiosity, and a respectful, nonjudgmental presence to therapeutic work.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Daiga commonly works from a Client-Centered approach, which focuses on listening with empathy and treating each person as the expert on their own life - this helps with self-esteem, life transitions, and finding personal direction. She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), an approach that helps people identify and work with core emotions and attachment needs, often supporting couples and individuals dealing with relationship pain and deep emotional patterns. In addition, Mindfulness Therapy features in her work as a way to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with chronic difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Daiga will work with clients to explore which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting sessions as understanding grows so the therapeutic path fits the person rather than the other way around.

Online therapy with Daiga is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier for people to access licensed professionals and therapists from home or while traveling, maintain continuity during life changes, and choose the format that best supports their progress.
