Christian Danahar Therapeutic CounsellorChristian Danahar:

Person-Centred Counsellor (MBACP)

My name is Christian Danahar, I am a Person-Centred Counsellor working with HQ Therapy Rooms in  Haggerston and Dalston, Hackney, London E8.

As a Person-Centred Counsellor, I work with a humanistic approach to counselling, aiding my clients to freely explore and bring to their awareness answers to their problems from within themselves.

Life for us all can be challenging at times, often leaving us feeling isolated, alone, having no one we can really turn to, or feel heard or truly understood.

Person-Centred Therapy puts you at the centre of each of our sessions.

I am here to help facilitate that process, enabling you to identify the root cause and focus on a solution.

This may be the first time that you have entered into a counselling relationship. Or it may be something you have thought about doing for some time, but taking that first step is a huge leap into the unknown.

I would like to help you with that step toward navigating your way through this difficult period in your life. Together, confidentially we can discuss what is troubling you – freeing you to move forward, overcome and manage your situation.

 

What can you expect from me?
I provide a warm, empathic, trusting environment enabling my clients to speak freely and feel safe with what they wish to discuss openly, privately and without fear of judgement.

Person-Centred Counselling is widely used to help to manage and overcome a number of issues, such as Anxiety and Depression, Bereavement, Substance Abuse and Addiction, Sexuality Issues, and Anger, as well as Transitional Periods in life, such as Relationship problems, Parenting issues,  College, Family and Workplace difficulties.

Life is busy and I understand that it can be hard trying to attend each session in person. I offer an alternative to this situation, working online or by telephone for all of my clients; this can be beneficial in many ways, such as alleviating travel costs, parking restrictions, time management, as well as geographical location.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Should I Seek Therapy?

Many people, new to this type of help, believe that they need to be suffering from “mental illness” or serious “psychological problems”, or be in crisis in order for therapy and counselling to be appropriate for them. This is a common misconception; anyone can benefit from therapy when it comes to helping you deal with your personal feelings and problems, make positive changes in your life, and understand yourself better.

So what is therapy and counselling? If you’re new to this world then the first steps can sometimes be the most difficult. Therapy can be a very effective treatment for a whole range of personal problems covering areas from physical and emotional problems, different types of behavioural disorders, through to human sexuality issues and a host of wellbeing and complementary therapy techniques.

Any problem you have that is causing you concern, anxiety or distress is a valid and appropriate reason to reach out and find a therapist and talk to them about it. Far from something to be ashamed of, acknowledging your vulnerability and asking for help is a sign of maturity and strength.

If you feel that you have a desire and are committed to making changes in your life in order to overcome your current problems and achieve more long-term satisfaction, psychological wellbeing and personal fulfilment, then you are ready to seek therapy. We are here to help you work through a wide range of therapy issues that might be troubling you.

Will Information About Me Be Safe & Secure?

It is quite normal to be hesitant when it comes to sharing private and intimate information about yourself with a stranger. You may fear that you will receive judgment from your therapist, or that your therapist will share your details with others.

HQ Therapy Rooms takes your privacy and confidentiality very seriously. Our therapists are required to keep everything said in therapy sessions between you, just like your doctor is required to keep your records private.

For therapy to be effective, there must be unconditional trust built between you and your therapist, and this relies on a shared understanding of confidentiality. It applies to the outside world as well: it is standard practice for therapists not to acknowledge their clients if they run into them outside of the therapy rooms in order to help protect their client’s confidentiality. Read our full privacy policy for more information.

Can I Contact You For Advice About Getting Therapy?

Talking about your thoughts and feelings with a supportive therapist can often make you feel better and help you face your problems. It feels good to be listened to and to know that someone cares about you and wants to help. It is important that you find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and can build a trusting relationship to help you make positive changes in your life.

But how do you know what type of therapy is right for you? Taking the first steps in finding the right therapist can be the biggest hurdle for newcomers, so we have made it easy. Simply fill out the form below in confidence, and one of our fully qualified referral therapists can work with you to make sure you connect with the right practitioner and receive the correct therapy and counselling services you require.
