Hi there, I'm Daniel (Dan)! I have experience working with many different populations. From the most impoverished to the most successful. One common theme among people is how our emotions can affect our behavior in unpredictable ways. Most people already know the answers to their problems. By talking about themselves in a safe environment, and with appropriate feedback and questions, they start to solve their own problems.

In the therapy session, I work to create a safe place to be our true, human selves—where both our worst and best qualities will in time be revealed. I work in the here-and-now: exploring your present concerns and goals more than your past history. I know that empathy promotes healing and ask for feedback to be sure my clients feel understood. I provide resources, tools and skills clients can use between sessions. I also work to help people learn self-compassion (see www.self-compassion.org), since that ability is necessary to heal and grow.

The therapist-client alliance is at the core of emotional healing. I use a compassionate approach pair with evidence-based treatments to effectively target common mental health disorders such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, trauma-related, and other psychological disorders that prevent satisfying relationships. Yo hablo español: La alianza de el terapeuta y el/la clienta es el núcleo de la curación emocional. Utilizo un enfoque compasivo junto con tratamientos basados ​​en la evidencia para abordar eficazmente los trastornos comunes de salud mental.
