Dan has over twenty years of experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds throughout Wisconsin in healthcare, hospice, long term care, community based mental health, correctional, and private practice settings. He is trained and knowledgeable in multiple types of individual, couples, and family counseling and psychotherapy approaches, with specializations in mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT).
In therapy, I prioritize getting to know my clients' values, experiences, and situations. I engage clients in brief assessments of thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors to identify strengths as well as maladaptive coping strategies. I believe in the importance of relationships, including the one between therapist and client, in healing wounds, improving communication, and working towards new insights and ways of living that are in alignment with your goals.
My hope is that you will feel understood, respected, and heard after our sessions. I also hope you have have new skills and strategies in your toolkit to improve how you are feeling, as well as how to navigate difficulties in your life in the future.
