I’ve had a good experience working with my therapist. They are a great listener and really create a comfortable, open space for sharing. It’s been helpful to talk things through with someone who’s thoughtful and gives practical suggestions to work with. I appreciate their professionalism and would recommend them to others looking for support in a welcoming, non-judgmental environment.

More about Daniel
- 20 years' experience
- Male
- LCSW, LICSW
I became motivated to pursue a career in psychotherapy through my lived experience as a trauma survivor and a recovering addict. My specialties include treating depression, anxiety, relationship issues, chemical dependency, process addictions, and trauma-related disorders. I am fortunate to have had a rewarding and successful career in the mental health field which includes working for 18 years as a fully licensed therapist, providing over 10,000 hours of individual and group psychotherapy, running my own professional training company, and doing research into psychosocial rehabilitation models. My approach to psychotherapy is very client-centered and while I am eager to learn and apply a wide variety of treatment modalities I believe this work is highly individualized. I enjoy working with a diverse client base and my priorities are to build strong relationships and work with clients to apply their individual strengths towards whatever life challenges they are seeking to overcome.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Daniel is the best therapist I’ve ever had. He addressed my many concerns and helped rebuild my confidence. I wholeheartedly recommend him.
Talking with Daniel has improved my quality of life. I am very grateful to have him as my therapist. I cannot praise his talents and efforts in helping me enough!
Daniel asks a lot of good questions to help identify problems and find resolutions to those issues.
Daniel is great
Daniel has been and continues to be the perfect therapist for me. Sharing similar personal experiences and traumas has made it very easy to relate and listen to his advice or thoughts on a topic. He is very professional, always on time ready to go, caring and kind, encouraging, and challenges me when it is appropriate.
Daniel seems very knowledgeable and experienced.
Daniel is a great listener. I like brain storming different approaches to the issues of concern to me. I admire his ability to help me explore the same questions I failed to find answer to, yet with his help I am able to see it in a different light.
Good job strait to point ,friendly, and knowledgeable
Love Daniel! He's very understanding, empathetic, and down to earth. He makes me feel very comfortable and offers a lot of useful perspective on things that I'm working through. Highly recommend
We have worked through so much in the past 8 months. Daniel has shared some encouraging perspectives, and insights, and asked the right question, and has consistently helped me focus on what is most benefitial to explore in therapy. I will continue to recommend him and BetterHelp to friends, family and coworkers!
Daniel provided focused information and emotional support. I would recommend him.
Daniel helped me move on through some difficult family situations.
Best therapy session ever, for the first time I felt fully heard and not judged. He took the time and offered good advice to what I needed help with. I highly recommend Daniel for your therapist :)
Daniel is awesome. Great listener and provided meaningful feedback and useful tools to gain momentum in addressing what I’ve been dealing with.
Daniel has helped me get through the tough times I am facing!
Daniel is great, I've only had a few sessions with him and I've already gotten a lot out of them. He always asks what I think the most productive thing to discuss is which I really appreciate, he listens well, and offers good, actionable advice.
I feel completely at ease talking to him and he’s very good at keeping me on track. I tend to get off track frequently dealing with many family members so this makes it wonderful in sorting out what I can do to change things within my home.
Things are going well so far. Couples counseling is different but I think he's doing a good job helping us identifying and thinking about things we've been distant from. Just kind of letting us lead, buy also stepping in when we don't know where to go.
