Therapists in Seattle, WA

Whether you feel deeply stuck in a dark place, or just need a boost to get back to enjoying life again, I will provide focused, caring attention, utilize my expertise to respectfully offer suggestions, and make a step-by-step plan.

Anxiety takes on many forms: social, obsessions and compulsions, attachments, phobias, and post-traumatic stress to name a few. Clinical research has shown all of the above to be treatable, given the right therapeutic relationship matched with the right treatment. Daniel has treated clients coping with anxiety, depression, ADHD, behavioral issues, psychosis, social difficulties, divorce, sibling relationships, unhealthy attachment styles, and various forms of trauma (including PTSD).

I enjoy helping my clients find their unique strengths and building on them in a confidential and supportive setting.

I am a clinician focused on both deep emotions and practical coping. My therapy style is to collaborate with Clients to find out what works for you the best.

I am a marriage and family therapist that helps individuals and couples navigate the challenges of modern life. We explore how roles in family, relational, social, and cultural networks influence the whole person.

Clients I work with often feel they have all the outside elements for a happy life, but still struggle with stress, relational problems, self-esteem, and work issues. Something is missing or preventing fulfillment and it is our collaborative efforts that help us discover and remove those barriers.

Are feelings of hopelessness, unworthiness, shame, stress, grief, guilt, anxiety or depression stopping you from living the life you desire? Do you feel stuck and unsure how to move forward?

I want to empower you to improve yourself and better manage the challenges of life. I would love to work with you to establish and achieve your goals while improving daily functioning. "Life happens," and you do not have to go through it alone. There is immense value and bravery in seeking support and an "outside" perspective.

Do you outwardly appear to hold it all together? Yet on the inside, are there numerous life circumstances that challenge your ability to cope, manage everyday stressors, and feel in control? As a school counselor and learning specialist with 27 years experience working with adolescents and young adults, I bring a unique perspective of empathy, compassion, optimism, and humor to my counseling practice. I hold a safe space in which adolescents and young adults can address and navigate stress, anxiety, attentional and executive function challenges, social, familial and societal expectations and the myriad transitions life presents us.

Life is full of challenges and sometimes we just get stuck. Most of all, I want to help you feel better and enjoy life. My work with you is about finding a way to get unstuck and move forward. My goal is to help you work through challenges, find the meaning in life again, and ultimately, live life to its fullest!

A few spots for telehealth or walk-and-talk therapy available, start with a consultation. If you are hoping to find a space to manage stress and anxiety, process your past, learn about your emotions and defense mechanisms, heal from trauma, abuse, and hurt, and build a healthier sense of self, stronger coping skills, and better relationships, let's get to work. I understand that finding the right therapist can be a daunting process, that's why I respond to all inquiries promptly, offer free consultations, and provide all prospective clients with referrals if we are not the right fit or I do not have availability.

You may be seeking change, healing, or understanding as you exist in the relationships and situations around you. Whatever your reasons may be, my hope is to provide a safe space for transformation to occur. I work within the context of relationship, believing they are what shape us, harm us, and ultimately heal us. Therefore we will work together as we explore opportunities for you to step further into your own voice and longings, finding freedom from anxiety, stress, depression, and fear. Making the decision to enter therapy is admirable. I look forward to meeting you wherever you may be.

When too much is too much and nothing seems to be working, therapy is an excellent place to start. We all respond to stress differently. Some common ways are lethargy, persistent thoughts, impulsive actions, body aches, or insomnia. You may apply words like depression, anxiety, or trauma to those symptoms which can feel big and scary. Therapy is where you can fully show up with any of it. Therapy contains the things that feel out of control and once a week or more you have a safe place to bring yourself authentically.

I particularly enjoy working with neurodivergent teens and adults, creative types, individuals dealing with high-stress jobs who are wanting to prioritize their mental health, those looking for a space to process the stressors of navigating daily life, and those struggling with their relationship to food, their body, and movement. I'm strongly influenced by the importance of play and enjoy working with folks to add more play to their lives. I have additional training in EMDR therapy and am a Certified Body Trust provider through the Center for Body Trust.
