About David
David Dunlevy is a counsellor with four years' experience offering online therapy across the United Kingdom. He uses practical, conversational work to help people address depression, anxiety, stress and relationship strain. David keeps sessions straightforward and focused on what matters to each person.
He draws on a mix of approaches to fit different needs. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, for example, looks at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify values and commit to small changes that matter.
Background and approach
Emotionally-Focused Therapy and client-centred work bring attention to feelings and the way people relate to themselves and others. Sessions are delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. David aims to make it easy to fit therapy into a busy life, with options that suit quieter check-ins or longer conversations.
He works in English and offers therapy to people based in the United Kingdom. People come to him for a wide range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, parenting strain, intimacy and self-esteem issues. He also focuses on attachment, communication problems, forgiveness and isolation or loneliness.
His approach is to listen carefully, then agree practical steps together. David explains what to expect at the first meeting and helps set realistic goals. He uses clear language and collaborative planning so clients know what the next session will involve.
If therapy looks like a good fit, he guides clients through the next steps to get started.

Online support
Finding the right way to work together is a shared process. David will talk through different approaches and try methods that suit the person, their goals and how they prefer to work. He checks in regularly and adapts the plan based on what helps most.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller exchange is helpful. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, writing things down, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life and keep momentum between sessions.
