More about Daniel

  • 8 years' experience
  • Male
  • LMHC, LCMHC

Hi! My name is Daniel, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida with more than 7 years of experience in mental health and substance abuse. I’ve worked with a wide variety of people and work with many issues including parenting, LGBTQ, trauma & abuse, bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, loss, addiction, and others. I particularly like working with depression, anxiety, dealing with trauma, life transitions, and substance abuse.

Are you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, sad, misunderstood, or stuck? I would like to help. I offer a safe and respectful place to explore what you are going through as well as effective ways to make changes in your life. Respect and communication are important to me. I will encourage people I work with to be a little uncomfortable, but you will be in charge of what you choose to do or not to do without judgment (for example doing writing, homework, or direction). I genuinely enjoy working with people of different ages and situations to help make effective changes and through feelings and situations.

Thanks for considering me and congrats on taking the step of seeking help to live your best life.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Daniel La Born is extremely knowledgeable and a very skilled therapist. My mental health has greatly improved since I started working with him.

Reviewed December 2022

So far, Daniel has been very supportive and easy to work with. He allows me to guide the conversation based on what I'm thinking at the time and really listens and thinks about what I'm saying before responding, which is very important and helpful to me. Other therapists I have dealt with have tried to steer the conversation to get to a point that they already know they want to make, whereas Daniel doesn't mind pausing for a few moments after I'm finished speaking on a topic to really think about what I'm saying before giving his insight. I usually have a very difficult time opening up, but Daniel makes it very easy for me because I'm confident that he's always going to listen and give me an unbiased perspective of myself and my thoughts. Overall I'm genuinely enjoying our sessions together and I can't recommend him enough. He's a true professional and he strikes me as a genuine individual, which is hard to come by in my opinion.

I really like Daniel, because he is extremely attentive while listening, and brings them to light some of the perspectives that had not been thought about. Anytime I was having a panic attack or struggling I was able to send can the message and got a very Speedy response. Our life sessions together are extremely therapeutic in understanding the issues being discussed, for example at the beginning of every session he will ask me what would you like to focus on oh, and at the end of the session he will give me information, or Therapies, to utilize for the following week in order to tackle and understand the specific issue that we discussed within that live session I'm very happy and excited to be getting better and I thanks Daniel for helping me realize my potential and grow. Thank you.

Daniel is wonderful. He’s the bright spot in my dark days. I’m glad he was assigned to me.

Reviewed July 2021

There are not enough nice things I can say about Daniel. He is kind, patient, understanding, flexible with his schedule, and incredibly supportive when it comes to providing counseling. He has a myriad of techniques, books, videos, diagrams, and other sources of presenting the information that would appeal to any learning style. He has helped guide me though some of my most negative thoughts and truly turned them completely around. Going from constantly beating myself up, to allowing myself to be okay with where I am in life, to then actually being proud of myself is an indescribable gift and despite what he says (that I did all the work) I give him much deserved credit for helping me though those feelings. Daniel is a fantastic therapist and I recommend him to anyone needing a gentle shoulder to lean on.
