About Daniel

Struggling in relationships? Relationships are part of us as much as our personality and identity are. Relationships problems often become personal problems, and personal problems often become relationship problems. Daniel helps individuals, couples, and families untangle these complex challenges through counseling for preteens, teenagers, and adults.

Daniel provides a safe, comfortable space to explore and understand personal and relational challenges at their root, guiding you toward healing for yourself and your relationships. He believes therapy works best when it is cooperative, when client and therapist are working towards the same goals to create change. Tailoring treatment to each client allows Daniel to meet the needs of individual clients in comfortable ways. He has found success working with clients struggling with a variety of issues like life transition, post-traumatic stress, family conflict, depression, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem, relationship conflict and disconnection, parenting, and more.

Daniel’s practice is informed by training and education from his Master’s program in Marriage and Family Counseling, as well as experience working in residential mental health treatment, community health, private practice, and academic research as a Graduate Assistant. He has training in family, couple, and individual therapies as well as specialties in trauma focused therapies like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) that allow him to address a wide variety of personal and interpersonal challenges. Daniel also utilizes SYMBIS programs for premarital counseling to help couples establish a strong foundation and learn important relationship skills for marriage.

Daniel has a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Counseling from Liberty University.  He is a Licensed Resident in Marriage and Family Therapy (License # 0730000752) and in Counseling (License #0704017160) which renews on 07/31 of every year.
