My name is Dan Piñon (they/them) and I am a gender queer, mixed, latine (Mexican), neurodivergent therapist. I have had the honor of working with a wide variety of ages, background and needs. This includes specific communities such as queer/trans folks, neurodiverse humans, young/emerging adults, college students, BIPOC & multicultural identities, and trauma survivors.
My work is influenced heavily by my values of anti-racism, anti-capitalism, queer and intersectional feminist theory, fat liberation and disability justice. My therapy approach is integrative, trauma informed, queer affirming, sex-positive, and anti-oppressive. I have also developed some areas of strong interest, including complex grief, neurodivergence, burnout, relational trauma, family wounds, somatic based practices, and identity exploration.
As a somatic therapist, I use therapeutic brain-body approaches, such as brainspotting, to reprocess negative experiences and release the emotional/physical survival energy that was stuck within those experiences. All are welcome in my space and ,with me, therapy will be a collaborative process where I hold you within the vast complexities from which you come.
