Dante Harker is a UK-based relationship and wellbeing therapist with 25+ years’ experience in hypnotherapy, NLP, coaching and psychosexual therapy. He also writes fiction, runs Gold Leaf Training for therapists, and builds practical digital tools as a solo developer. His leadership roles have included The Big Issue in the North and North East Lincolnshire Mind, which deepened his understanding of mental health beyond the therapy room. He supports clients who want confidence, meaningful connection and lives that reflect their values—not only their achievements. Dante is available for podcasts, panels and workshops. Typical themes include relationships, men's sexual health, executive stress, resilience and integrated routes to lasting change; he can also weave in perspectives from technology and creative practice when the audience fits.
Dante Harker is a UK-based relationship and wellbeing therapist with 25+ years’ experience in hypnotherapy, NLP, coaching and psychosexual therapy. He also writes fiction, runs Gold Leaf Training for therapists, and builds practical digital tools as a solo developer. His toolkit includes hypnotherapy, NLP, life coaching and executive coaching, offered with a direct, compassionate style that respects busy lives and real-world pressure. Before and alongside private practice, Dante led organisations in the social sector—notably The Big Issue in the North and North East Lincolnshire Mind—which shaped his grounded view of how stress, inequality and community show up in people's mental health.
He works with individuals and couples navigating confidence, intimacy, career strain and the gap between outward success and inner satisfaction. Having travelled extensively and trained across body-based and talking therapies, he takes an integrated view: change sticks when mind, habits and environment are addressed together. Dante is a confident stage presence and has delivered talks at festivals and conferences; he is equally at ease on long-form podcasts and short panel segments.
He is happy to discuss men's psychosexual health, relationship dynamics, burnout and high performance, charity and systems thinking, and how therapeutic ideas land in ordinary language. Where relevant, he can connect these themes to creativity and technology as parts of a full life—not as side hobbies. He also teaches professional courses via Gold Leaf Training.
