About Daniel

Daniel Jansen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who centers therapy on the person in front of him. He emphasizes client-centered work and practical skills to help people build confidence and handle day-to-day challenges. Daniel writes plainly and focuses on clear steps people can use right away.

He draws on eight years of experience providing help with parenting stress, anger, low self-esteem, and depression. He also supports people coping with major life changes, grief, sleep problems, bipolar mood concerns, and ADHD-related struggles. He pays attention to communication problems, family of origin issues, and fatherhood worries when those come up.

Sessions focus on what the client wants to change and on practical ways to get there. Daniel uses approaches such as client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral tools, and dialectical behavior strategies to build skills and shift unhelpful patterns. Motivational interviewing helps when people feel stuck or uncertain about change.

He aims for short, manageable goals and clear homework when that suits the person. Daniel respects the pace each person sets and adjusts his style to individual needs. The work is collaborative and grounded in everyday language.

People who choose him can expect straightforward explanations and a focus on small steps that add up. Signing up for therapy is framed as a courageous first move, and Daniel uses that start to build momentum toward better coping and stronger self-regard.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, understanding your concerns, and following your lead. Online sessions using this approach spend time on your goals and what matters most to you, with the therapist reflecting back and helping you choose next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and builds specific strategies to change patterns. In remote sessions CBT often uses short exercises, thought records, and action plans that you can practice between meetings.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. Online work with DBT-style skills might cover grounding exercises, emotional regulation techniques, and clear communication tools that you can test in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with you to choose techniques that match your needs, goals, and preferences. He will adjust methods as progress is made or as priorities change.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also supports practicing skills between meetings and maintaining continuity during life transitions.
