I am very passionate about helping adults and adolescents with mental health and substance abuse problems. I offer a safe, non-judgmental setting where people can express themselves and know that they will be heard. I focus on seeing each person as a valued individual, not just the symptoms they display or labels they have been given. I am very welcoming to I members of the LGBTQIA+ community. My practice works with a wide variety of problems such as anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, addiction (all kinds), adjustment problems, family problems, consequences of legal problems and many others.

Up front, I'm not the therapist for everyone. I don't have a flowery sales pitch about self-fulfillment and safe spaces, I'll probably be wearing an old t-shirt and jeans, I encourage expressive profanity, and I have more tattoos than your average therapist. Most of my caseload is trauma and PTSD. Much of the trauma work involves complex trauma with co-occurring dissociation, personality disorders, substance abuse, and anger. My work with trauma clients includes adult and adolescent survivors of physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, both active duty and retired military personnel, and first responders.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, disorganized, or forgetful or unfocused? Do you swing from feeling “stressed-out” to depressed? Are you experiencing the long term effects from early childhood trauma - neglect or physical abuse- that culminated in Complex P.T.S.D. symptoms. You may be dealing with other bio-psycho-social issues which contribute to feeling anxious or moody or brain issues such as ADD, P.T.S.D. or T.B.I. Although my focus is on providing brain training with biofeedback/neurofeedback, my approach is holistic and compassionate, encouraging clients to explore their wise mind, body and brain for positive change.

Hello! My name is Daniel. Have you tried therapy and felt like you still weren’t understood or that it didn’t work for you - no matter how hard you tried? I understand the impact of either being gender queer or neurodivergent in a world built for neurotypical brains. Life is often more difficult due to neurological differences that impact communication, executive functioning, sensory regulation, role-perceptions, and learning in general. You are not broken! If you want a therapist who actually understands your struggles, strengths, and needs of your neurotype - I'm your person!

Hello, welcome to my profile. My perspective about counseling is that one therapy approach does not address all needs, so my diverse counseling background and training allows me to address concerns with a multi-treatment approach. My attention is typically placed on conscious distractions that can interrupt the peaceful flow of life, but I am also aware of subconscious negative residue that may be the root cause of anxiety and duress. If you would like the nagging negative distractions to fade away so you can reclaim control of your life and enjoy peaceful days, visit www.TheVirtualCounselingCenter.com and schedule a session.

First and foremost I am not the therapist for everyone. I don't like to talk about and blame things on your past. I don't blame the people of your past or let the client take on a victim mentality. Everyone has trauma in some form but I like to focus on how we are going to get past it and not give those experiences power to have a negative impact on you. We can use profanity, be mad, cry and talk about ways to take back power over things that aren't working in our process of going through life. If you want to recognize what issues you have and me to offer strategies on how to conquer them I am your guy.

Life moves fast, and it can hit hard. We all get bruised. Whether your problem is feeling caught in a loveless relationship, trapped in a job you don't like, lost, addicted--or even just generally unfulfilled and wanting more--feeling stuck or hopeless doesn't have to be a way of life. It's my goal to help you discover solutions that are right for you. I'm a professionally trained, licensed, and experienced therapist--but a realistic, logical, and heartfelt human being most of all.

Life is complex and often messy. We all feel burdened, alone, or overwhelmed from time to time. We all deserve and have the ability to be happy and healthy. I believe it is my job to empower people and help individual’s thrive in their current environment. I have a long history of working closely with individuals in crisis. What I have learned from my experience is that people have a misconception of therapy and believe it is for “others.” I have observed that people routinely settle for less and will remain in an unhealthy situation rather than seek guidance. I love being a therapist and working with a diverse population.

As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.
How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client. Prospective clients should also ask what the expectation is for treatment, and what the fee structure is, and whether and which insurance plans are accepted.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with a male therapist. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges, in the case of male clients. Some women have prior negative experiences with women that predispose them to prefer working with a male in therapy. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.
Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
