Hello, There is hidden potential for greatness in all persons. Often when you have thoughts or feelings that are causing problems for you, it is easy to think something is wrong with you. There is nothing wrong with you. You are perfect, it is that part of your mind that needs to be fixed and I would love to help you do that. I truly love helping families be strong units. There are no "bad children," only bad behavior. In both children and adults, bad behavior often comes from unmet needs and fears. With children, it could also come from undiagnosed learning disabilities. Let's figure this out together.

In addition to working with clients dealing with behavioral issues, depression, anxiety, transitions, life adjustments and more; I am an Approved Clinical Supervision and provide clinical supervision for those working toward licensure status.
Empowering you with the tools and supports needed to resolve emotional, behavioral, and relational concerns is my goal. Operating from a strengths-based perspective, I meet you where you are on your personal journeys and facilitate a path for you to lead a more productive life. I strongly believe you have the skills needed to fulfill life goals and overcome challenges; but sometimes a guide is needed to address patterns of behaviors and problematic thinking that may be hindering your success. I provide a safe, non-judgmental atmosphere where growth, self-exploration and positive change can occur.

As a counselor, I provide a person-centered approach building on a client’s strengths while incorporating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques.
Deciding to begin therapy could be one of the most challenging decisions you face for you and your family. Identifying that you need additional support and accepting the challenge of allowing someone to step in and provide you with that support is a major step in the right direction and requires a lot of courage. Counseling is more than telling a stranger your problems. It’s a decision that will enable you to learn how to manage your stress or circumstance, giving you the energy you need to pursue your goals and live a more peaceful, satisfying and fulfilling life.

Life transitions and struggles offer the opportunity to find greater clarity of purpose, more meaningful relationships, increased confidence, and personal satisfaction. To be human is to feel emotion, both the highs and the lows. We are all connected through not only these experiences, but through the relationships with those around us.

I work with individuals of all backgrounds, bodies, and beliefs. My approach is individualized and collaborative.

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!
