I’m Dan—a dedicated, down-to-earth therapist with a background that gives me deep empathy for those who’ve experienced trauma and adversity. My years in the military and emergency response taught me how resilient people can be, even in their darkest moments. I help clients process what they've been through and reconnect with a sense of meaning and control in their lives. Healing isn’t a straight line—but you don’t have to walk it alone.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session is what I like to call the Getting To Know You phase, and that goes both ways. It's an opportunity to discuss what brings you into therapy at this time, what's been going on in your life lately, and touching on some of your history if it comes up. It's also a great time for you to learn a little about me, my background and approach to us working together.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I like to believe I bring a mix of supportive, active listening and actionable problem solving to my work. You're the expert of your life, not me, so I am here to work with you to achieve those goals you've set for yourself in therapy. We all want to feel better overall; my job is to help however I can to get yourself there!

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

With specialized training and experience in treating PTSD, crisis intervention, and teaching suicide prevention, I am committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for you. My approach is grounded in empathy, respect, and evidence-based practices, ensuring that you receive care tailored to your unique needs.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Suicide Prevention (CBT-SP)

This is a psychotherapy approach I use aimed at reducing the risk of future suicidal behaviors in adults and adolescents who have recently attempted suicide.

Cognitive Processing (CPT)

Similar to CBT, Cognitive Processing Therapy is used to treat PTSD and focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and bodily sensations.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I am trained in CBT for multiple treatment goals, including reduction of anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder, and substance use disorder.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

I have worked within the framework of Dialectical Behavior Therapy for the last 4 years, particularly with veterans suffering from Borderline Personality Disorder and those involved with justices system in need of enhanced coping strategies.

EMDR

I'm currently able to provide EMDR therapy to help reduce the severity, vividness, and lasting negative effects of traumatic memories.
