As a licensed therapist in California, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients explore self-love, address communication challenges, and heal from experiences of isolation, trauma, and social anxiety.
With a deep commitment to understanding intersectional experiences, I provide culturally responsive care that honors diverse identities and lived experiences. My approach is particularly attuned to the unique challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals, men, and those confronting multicultural concerns.
I draw from evidence-based practices to help clients develop resilience, process challenging emotions, and cultivate meaningful connections. Whether you're struggling with life transitions, relationship dynamics, or personal growth, I offer a compassionate, affirming space to explore your journey.
My therapeutic work is grounded in understanding the profound impact of identity, systemic challenges, and personal history. I'm dedicated to supporting clients as they build self-understanding, challenge internalized narratives, and move toward more authentic, empowered lives.

Mr. Marshall has provided a safe space as I am working through my therapy goals. He listens, reframes and creates a dialogue that helps bring certain matters to my attention through my own thought process. Additionally, he is adaptable to my concerns in session and readily adjusts to help meet the pressing concerns. I'm thankful that Mr. Marshall is aware, approachable, knowledgeable and compassionate. He is a very strong support as I process through my sessions. I know I have the tendency to avoid certain issues around my treatment goals. He skillfully helps me to adress these issues in a pace that is not overwhelming. The homework he provides strengthens my ability to process after sessions and reinforces positive coping skills.

Daniel has a warm and welcoming personality while also being very professional. I appreciate the different strategies that he offers to me.

It’s only been a few sessions and Daniel has proven to know what I needed and met me where I’m at with my health. He is patient, understanding and fun to discuss my needs with. In a short time he has figured out what I need and followed my lead on how to approach my goals with therapy.

Daniel was amazing, I've had a therapist who was so bad, that left a bad experience and made me not want to have another. Daniel however, gave back the hope that I have for therapists. thank you so much Daniel.

I love that I am working with a black man therapist who can address my needs culturally. I have wanted a therapist, but always felt overwhelmed of where do I begin? He was the first therapist through Better Help after answering the guided questionnaire and it was an instant connection. He is very professional, but isn’t so stuffy that it isn’t difficult to talk to him. I am glad that I have the opportunity to work with him!

Is a straight to the point guy, who won’t beat around a bush. I like that. He tells me how things are and what I can do to work on things, listens well and gives me time to think, I appreciate that he gives me homework and things to think about until our next session
