Daniel Damen

I’m a board-certified psychiatrist providing personalized telepsychiatry focused on helping adults feel more balanced, focused, and in control of their mental health. I work with concerns including anxiety, depression, insomnia, stress, and difficulties with focus and productivity. My background in cognitive psychology and neuroscience informs how I understand the connection between the brain, emotions, behavior, and daily functioning. I aim to make psychiatric care thoughtful, practical, and tailored to the individual rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

My approach combines evidence-based psychiatry with psychotherapy, neuroscience, and practical strategies that can be applied to everyday life. I take time to understand the factors contributing to your symptoms, how they affect your functioning, and what you want to change. Treatment may include medication when appropriate, behavioral strategies, psychotherapy, or a combination of approaches. We’ll work collaboratively and adjust your treatment based on how you’re actually feeling and progressing.

Your first session is an opportunity to slow down and get a clear picture of what you’ve been experiencing. We’ll discuss your symptoms, mental health history, sleep, stressors, medications, and how your concerns are affecting your day-to-day life. We’ll also talk about your goals and what you would like treatment to accomplish. By the end of the visit, you can expect a thoughtful discussion of next steps and a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
