Tharani (Dani) Fowkes, BACP

Tharani (Dani) Fowkes is a counsellor with seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She supports people facing relationship strain, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, depression, and coping with life changes. Dani also offers help around intimacy-related issues, sleep problems and compassion fatigue. She works in English and German.

Dani keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She aims to create an open space where people can speak without judgement. Conversations focus on what matters now and on small steps that can make life feel more manageable.

Her work often uses solution-focused ideas, helping people identify what is already working and build on it. That can be useful for someone wanting short-term change or clearer direction when life feels stuck. Dani encourages people to notice strengths and shift habits that get in the way of their goals.

She draws on hands-on strategies alongside listening and reflection. That might mean setting doable goals, testing out new behaviours between sessions, and checking what helped or didn’t. The approach is practical and goal-orientated rather than long-form exploration.

Dani is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, noted as BACP. If you are thinking about help for living with health challenges or for issues such as codependency, grief after illness, or managing seasonal mood shifts, she can be contacted via the Start Therapy process on this site to begin a match and booking.

Solution-Focused work online and what to expect

Solution-Focused Therapy helps people focus on practical change by identifying what they want to achieve and small steps that move them in that direction. Sessions typically look at past moments of success, however small, and build on those so problems feel more manageable rather than overwhelming.

The counsellor’s general approach is pragmatic and goal-orientated, using short-term strategies to test what works. This can help with relationship problems, low mood, coping with health challenges, and reconciling life changes by turning aims into clear, doable actions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will work with the client to decide whether solution-focused techniques suit their needs and may adapt the work as goals or circumstances change. Clients’ preferences and day-to-day demands shape the plan together.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around appointments, work breaks or caregiving responsibilities and can reduce travel time. It also allows short check-ins or focused goal-setting sessions that slot into a busy week, helping therapy to fit more naturally into everyday life.
