Danya joined Psychology Associates in 2021.  Danya holds a PG (DIP) in Humanistic Counselling and has also completed specialist training in Counselling Children & Young People; Counselling Couples; Cognitive Behavioural Therapy; Dramatherapy; and Coaching. Danya is highly experienced in counselling adults and is able to provide effective psychological support for a broad range of mental health difficulties.

Danya has particular strength working with children in schools and is deeply committed to assisting young people through all the stages of their development as they transition into adulthood.  She is practical and creative in her integrative therapeutic approach, drawing from solution-focussed, cognitive behavioural and creative arts based therapies.  Underpinning all her work is the belief that everyone has incredible built-in reserves of strength and resources.

Danya enjoys working at PA as no two days are the same; she works therapeutically with clients and also engages with whole teams providing training, supervision and wellbeing workshops. She thrives on interaction with others and is proud to be part of such a diverse team of colleagues with a range of expertise and skills. 

In her downtime, she enjoys being out on nature walks. She belongs to a multi-heritage family of foodies so often experiments with different cuisines – from curries to homemade pasta. She also loves to cuddle up with her recue dogs (or cats if they are willing) while catching up on the latest Korean drama on Netflix.
