Hi, I'm Daniel. I am a licensed mental health therapist working with adults who experience anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship problems, meaninglessness, and the residual impacts of past traumas. My main approach to therapy is psychodynamic, which means I'll be interested in the past, the present, and the "here and now" of the counseling session. Together we'll work to find patterns across these areas and find ways to better manage hardship. I also offer EMDR, a therapy that helps people heal from traumatic or distressing memories.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Therapy is about looking at problems and finding new ways to handle them. This can mean learning how to manage difficult moments, gaining self-knowledge, searching for meaning, healing from old wounds, or moving towards a version of yourself that feels more authentic.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I primarily use psychodynamic therapy and EMDR. I will tailor my approach to best suit your needs.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am kind and patient, empathetic, non-judgmental, authentic and relaxed.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
My first goal as a therapist is to allow you to be yourself. I do this by being curious, listening, affirming, and collaborating to find a better way forward. I also believe it's my job is to acknowledge the many ways in which inequity and injustice shape how we understand ourselves and interact with the world.
