Hi, my name is Danielle Bennett, I’m an individual counsellor, a couple therapist and a sex therapist. I have been working in this field for over 25 years. I started my training, working for the NHS as a sex-therapist and I worked in the NHS for over 7 years.
I worked for worked for Relate as a sex therapist; couple counsellor and trainer for nine years. I left Relate when I moved to Worcestershire and have worked privately for a number of years.
I came into this work because I believe that all people whether they are in a relationship or not, should be reaching their personal potential to be happy. When I first studied relationships, I could not understand that if sex was supposed to be natural and easy why so many couples and individuals had problems. Over time, I’ve learnt that the complications and life are the elements that make a relationship strain; almost break and sometimes come back together. It’s all about balance, whether the issues are around balancing life; relationships or sex, we all need to find our balance.
I have heard, pretty much everything in the therapy sessions and after all these years and I’m still intrigued by people’s problems. I really enjoy getting to talk and work with both individuals and couples. Getting them back to where they want to be in a happy and healthy relationship and keeping families together.
As a conversational psychotherapist, my main focus is on the humanistic approach according to Carl Rogers. This approach emphasizes the importance of empathy, unconditional positive appreciation and authenticity in the therapeutic process.
In addition, I integrate techniques from systemic therapy in my therapeutic work. These allow me to take into account the environment and relationships of my clients in order to gain a more comprehensive understanding of their problems. By analysing and reflecting on the system in which the individual lives, we can see patterns and dynamics that contribute to the current situation.
Another part of my work is the transaction analysis. This method provides valuable tools to analyze the interactions and communication patterns of my clients. By understanding the different states of mind and transactions, we can together identify and change patterns of behavior to achieve healthier communication and better self-image.
My therapeutic approach is therefore integrative and versatile. I combine various methods to respond individually to the needs of my clients and to help them in their personal growth and to overcome their challenges in the best possible way.
