Daniel Silverstein

I'm Dan, a licensed mental health counselor with more than 10 years working with people across a wide range of concerns. My style is warm and casual, and clients consistently tell me I'm easy to talk with. I hold certifications in adolescent and substance abuse counseling and draw on multiple evidence-based approaches tailored to your specific needs. I believe everyone has the capacity for a happier, more fulfilling life, and I would be glad to be part of that journey with you.

My sessions are relaxed and conversational, meeting you where you are. Depending on what you bring, I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CT) to shift unhelpful patterns, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to clarify what matters most to you, and Motivational Interviewing when you are weighing a change. For couples and relationships, I use the Gottman Method and Emotion Focused Therapy. I always start from what is already working and build from there.

Our first session is a chance for you to share your story at your own pace. I will ask a few questions to understand what has been on your mind and what you are hoping to change, but there is no agenda to rush through. By the end, most people feel a little lighter just from having said things out loud, and we will have a clear, manageable sense of where to start together.
