About me
My 10+ years of experience has given me the opportunity to work with people in crisis, while others I have assisted, lived with the daily obstacles associated with severe and persistent mental illnesses.

My therapeutic approach is highly eclectic and incorporates theory and process ranging from psychodynamic , cognitive behavioral, solution focussed therapy to

Every sessions with Daniel is so valuable to me. I constantly learn more about myself and mental health in general. I feel like chatting is so easy and always worth it.

Daniel is wonderful to talk to. I look forward to talking with him weekly. I like the way he listens and challenges my thoughts and behaviors. He recommended the group therapy sessions, which I also really like. I feel like I've made great progress since I've seen Daniel.

Daniel is the most welcoming, kind, and honest therapist. From being personable to helping you build a better self.
I would recommend him to anyone.
Daniel, Thank you again for everything you do.

I’ve only worked with him for around 3 weeks now, but I already think that he’s a great therapist. I feel better when talking about my issues with him and we can also crack a joke during the middle of the session to.

Daniel has been a tremendous help to me since I've been seeing him. I've made a lot of progress with moving beyond my trauma and controlling the anger that resulted from it. He's a great listener, knows his stuff, and is very personable so you're comfortable and feel like you're talking to a trusted friend than a stuffy therapist.
