About Tharani
Counsellor and member of BACP, Tharani (Dani) Fowkes has seven years of practice in the United Kingdom and helps people with relationship issues, self esteem, career concerns, depression, anxiety and coping with life changes.
Dani meets people who are dealing with trauma and abuse, intimacy-related problems, sleep difficulties and compassion fatigue. She also attends to matters such as avoidant personality patterns, blended family issues, codependency, commitment and jealousy. She mentions working with multicultural concerns, prejudice and discrimination, and specific challenges like cancer and Seasonal Affective Disorder.
Her style is practical and goal oriented. Dani uses Solution-Focused Therapy to look for small, workable steps that can change day-to-day life. Sessions focus on what someone wants to achieve and on clear, manageable actions to try between meetings.
She aims to create an environment where people can speak about thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. Conversations are straightforward and centred on what is happening now and what could be different. Progress is checked in simple ways so the work stays relevant to the client's priorities.
Dani offers sessions in English and German. People interested in beginning work are asked to use the site's online counselling options, complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first session. The membership noted is BACP, which indicates a UK counselling professional association.
How Solution-Focused work fits with online counselling
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical change. It looks at what a person wants to be different and identifies small steps to try. This approach suits concerns like relationships, low mood, motivation, and coping with life changes where focused actions can create quick, visible shifts.That method works well alongside straightforward, time-limited conversations. The therapist helps clients set clear goals, notice what is already working and build on small successes. Deciding which approach to use is part of the work; Dani will explore goals and preferences with each person and agree on what to try together.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Many people find online counselling helps fit sessions into a busy week, makes shorter check-ins possible and removes travel time. It can also make it easier to attend from a different room or during a work break when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use online work to keep momentum between sessions and to try practical exercises agreed in the meetings.
