We view challenges as an opportunity for growth. Life challenges us with difficulties including depression, anxiety, illness, growing up and getting older. We often try to conceal our struggles with smiles or withdraw from those around us.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting, but I assure you that you've already begun a courageous journey by just showing up today.

Do you find yourself stressed managing all that life throws your way? The worry, overwhelm, and panic feels never ending. The stress may be from external or internal pressure, a life transition, or the death of a loved one.

My name is Dan Dashner. I am dually licensed in the treatment of mental health and substance use disorders. As a therapist, I prefer to look beyond labels and identify and resolve root causes for emotional pain and suffering. Clients I work with are typically individuals, couples, and families who are experiencing some form of emotional discomfort, or emotional pain. Sometimes this is stress brought on by recent changes to work, family, or significant relationships. Other times the focus of therapy is with clients who've made repeated but unsuccessful attempts at resolving a persistent condition.

I will guide you to become more compassionate with yourself. It's about recognizing that it's okay to struggle, to make mistakes, and feel vulnerable.
