About Daniel
Daniel Garcia Higuera is a counsellor registered with NCPS (National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society). He offers therapy in English and Spanish and draws on six years of hands-on experience supporting people with anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship concerns. He aims for clear, practical conversations and a calm atmosphere where clients can make sense of their situation and try new ways of coping.
Daniel trained in psychology and completed several postgraduate degrees, and he has worked across settings since 2019.
Background and approach
His background includes work with people facing eating and sleep difficulties, cancer-related stress, emotional dependence and a range of mood and anxiety presentations. He uses evidence-informed methods and keeps sessions focused on the client’s goals. In sessions Daniel listens for the stories that shape how someone sees themselves and their problems.
He then helps people rewrite those stories so they have more choice and agency. He encourages small experiments between sessions, practical steps to ease distress, and checking what feels useful as therapy progresses. Daniel adapts his style to each person.
Some clients want structured tools to manage anxiety and mood. Others prefer a reflective, exploratory pace to unpack past hurts and meaning. He explains options and works together with people to find what fits.
Appointments are offered online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Sessions are scheduled through a short matching questionnaire and a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. He does not accept international clients and works from the United Kingdom.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how he works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Daniel directly how he uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
How narrative and action-focused approaches work online
Daniel often blends Narrative Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people change how they relate to difficult experiences. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people carry and helps them separate themselves from problems so they can author new meanings; it can be useful for identity, relationship and grief issues. ACT encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then taking steps that match personal values - this helps with anxiety, avoidance and life changes.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Daniel will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, explain different ways of working, and try methods together to see what fits best. He checks in regularly and adjusts the mix of reflective conversation and practical exercises as therapy progresses.
Online formats make this flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversations and exercises. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, journalling-style work or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options help therapy slot into everyday life and support steady progress over time.
