He has helped people address issues such as abandonment worries, codependency, family of origin conflicts, blended family struggles, and problems with guilt and shame.

Online support
Attachment and Skills-Based Support Online
Daniel uses attachment-based therapy to look at how past and present relationships shape current feelings and responses. This approach helps people notice patterns of connection and distance so they can try different ways of relating. He also uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening closely and responding without judgment to help people feel understood and decide their next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors that reduce anxiety and improve mood.Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work together with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. That process can include trying different strategies over time and measuring what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be quicker check-ins or work better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to keep a steady dialogue between sessions or fit therapy into a busy day. These options help people access consistent care from wherever they are located.
