About Rhys

Rhys Kain Danter is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience and a BACP credential. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and addictions, among other concerns. His approach is practical and straightforward, aiming to help people find ways to cope and move forward.

Rhys draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, and brings in dialectical behaviour therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy as needed. He adapts sessions to each person, using tools that fit the individual rather than a one-size-fits-all model. Expect clear explanations and simple strategies you can use between sessions.

Sessions are shaped around the goals a person brings. Rhys offers psychoeducation alongside therapeutic exercises so clients understand why a method is being used. That can make it easier to put new skills into practice in everyday life.

He also addresses a wide range of specific concerns such as self-esteem, ADHD, grief, intimacy issues and coping with life changes. Additional focus areas include chronic illness and disability, communication difficulties, domestic violence, and coping with natural or human-caused disaster.

Rhys aims to help people heal, grow and strengthen their coping strategies. He views therapy as a collaborative process and tailors each session to what the person needs at that time. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

How Rhys's approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult feelings while committing to actions that match their values. It is useful when someone wants to reduce avoidance and live more in line with what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression and stress. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving regulation and interpersonal effectiveness. It can help when emotions feel overwhelming or impulsive reactions cause problems.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to identify what feels most useful based on a person's goals and preferences. Early sessions will focus on understanding what someone wants to change and testing a few simple tools to see what fits.

The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Rhys aims to adapt exercises and homework so they are practical for everyday life, whether working through stress, coping after a disaster, or building new routines.
