About John
John Davis works with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people talk through difficulties and find practical ways to manage everyday problems. He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience.
He focuses on clear, short-term work and on building practical skills. Sessions are conversational and aim to identify patterns that keep problems going. He helps people spot unhelpful thinking, try different ways of responding, and practise small changes between sessions.
John frames therapy as collaborative. He sets goals with each person and reviews progress regularly. He also adapts the pace to suit someone who prefers focused, action-orientated sessions or someone who needs more time to reflect.
Costs vary with location and sessions are provided through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Confirm current session options before booking.
To begin, clients are asked to use the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. That first meeting is used to agree aims and plan the next steps.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
John uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear steps and practical skill-building. One common approach is cognitive work that looks at patterns of thinking and helps people try different responses; this can help with anxiety, low mood and unhelpful self-beliefs. Another common strand is behavioural work that encourages small experiments and new routines to change how someone copes with stress and anger.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped in the past, and then decide together which methods to use. This collaborative review continues as sessions progress so methods can be changed if needed.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also make it possible to work with a counsellor who is based in a different country, while decisions about timing and format are agreed together.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
