About Daiga
Daiga Denton brings eight years of counselling experience to her work. She trained in humanistic counselling and holds BACP accreditation. Daiga speaks English and Latvian and offers sessions to people in the United Kingdom and beyond.
She sees anxiety and depression as signals rather than final answers. Daiga treats those concerns alongside relationship strain, grief, addiction and difficulties with self-esteem or sleep. She also helps people who are navigating parenting pressures, career changes, chronic illness, body image issues and the effects of past abuse or trauma.
How Daiga works
Daiga uses a person-focused way of working. She believes each person already knows what they need and that therapy is about finding and removing the blocks that stop that wisdom from being accessed. Sessions centre on listening, gentle challenge and helping people make sense of how past experiences shape present feelings and behaviour.
Her approach draws on emotionally focused and somatic ideas alongside mindfulness and existential perspectives. This means attention to feelings in the moment, the body’s signals, and the meanings people give to life events. Practical steps and breathing or grounding exercises may be used in session.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. International clients can be seen and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled according to availability.

Approaches that translate to online care
Daiga uses client-centred work to focus on the person rather than a set of techniques. This approach involves listening closely, reflecting what is said and helping people find their own answers to problems like anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship strain.She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, which pays attention to patterns in close relationships and the feelings that drive them. EFT can help people understand attachment needs and improve emotional connection when intimacy or communication is causing distress.
Existential ideas are part of her practice too, looking at meaning, choice and the big questions that come up during life changes. This can be useful for people coping with grief, career shifts, ageing or major health challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be decided together. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences and how symptoms show up, then suggest ways of working that suit the individual. Sessions can mix different methods depending on what helps most.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy lives or mobility limits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into short breaks, while live chat or text messaging can suit those who prefer writing or want quick check-ins. These formats make it easier to arrange regular sessions and maintain continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
