Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Harker Heights, TX covered by Cigna

I work with neurodivergent women, especially moms, who have trouble turning off their brain and connecting to their feelings. Many of my clients are people pleasing, perfectionistic, and struggle with their relationships with others. As someone with 10 years experience studying and practicing in the mental health space, I can tell you that having a sense of belonging and connectedness is the single greatest predictor of mental wellbeing.

Genuine belonging and connection to self or others may be difficult because you're carrying guilt, shame, self-blame, or the pressure to hold everything together. You may look “fine” from the outside while privately feeling overstimulated, burned out, or feeling a lack of purpose or direction.

Therapy can be a place to stop performing, slow down, and connect to yourself, so you can show up in connection and belonging with others in a genuine way.

Something that stands out in regard to me is that I have gathered some valuable wisdom over the years from many excellent mentors and life experience as an educator, vocational ministry, raising my own family, and having worked with many gifted and compassionate people.

My clients describe me as understanding ("getting them as individuals"), caring and collaborative , and a safe place to share what they need to share.

I focus on collaborating with adolescents and adults working to cope with the anxiety and stress that come with neurodivergence, family/life transitions, trauma, and shame. My training is grounded in using evidence-based practices that center on balancing the many internal factors that impact our mental health- including ACT, DBT, and CBT, as well as the use of strengths-based interventions.

Being in this helping profession for 30 years and 20 years within therapy, my approach is based on an individual's needs. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I have worked in almost every therapeutic arena. From outpatient, inpatient, individual, group to children, adolescents, adults, and seniors, I gained experience in multiple avenues. I predominately specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy but also allow for a mutual approach to achieve your goals and needs within this therapeutic process. We will work together for success.

My focus

I specialize in working with adults facing depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, occupational stress, relationship conflicts, cultural and identity issues, and survivors of abuse. I help clients build understanding and chart a path forward using evidence-based approaches.

My communication style

My style is nurturing, accepting, empathic, and personable. I use unconditional positive regard to help you feel safe without judgment. I validate how you feel and normalize your situation so you can feel comfortable and at ease in our work together.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist because I have always accepted others, regardless of their background or circumstances. I believe in advocating for those who may not otherwise have a voice.

I believe that healing begins with feeling genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My own life experiences taught me the power of having someone who continues to show up with compassion, hope, and encouragement—even during life's most difficult moments. That experience inspired me to become a social worker and therapist, and it continues to shape how I care for every client I work with.

I have over 12 years of experience in mental health and social services and have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) for the past three years, after practicing as a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) for five years. Throughout my career, I've worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, families, and individuals experiencing severe mental illness, trauma, homelessness, foster care involvement, school-related challenges, and major life transitions. My background includes school social work, crisis intervention, rehabilitation counseling, psychotherapy, case management, and program development, giving me a well-rounded understanding of the many factors that impact mental health.

I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, self-esteem, relationship concerns, family conflict, life transitions, stress, grief, trauma, communication difficulties, compassion fatigue, motivation, and coping with change. Whether you're facing a specific challenge or simply feeling overwhelmed, my goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can better understand yourself, build practical skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My role isn't to tell you what to do—it's to walk alongside you, helping you recognize your strengths, overcome obstacles, and build the life you want with confidence and resilience.

¡Hola! I’m Daniel, a bilingual, English-Spanish clinical social worker.

When you work with me, you’ll understand that you’re not alone in your struggles, you can grow and get through anything, and you are inherently necessary in this world.

I specialize in helping adults navigate challenges related to depression, anxiety, and life transitions. My therapeutic approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques to support clients in building coping skills, emotional balance, and self-awareness. I am known for my empathetic nature, active listening skills, and patient approach, creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can feel heard and understood. I believe in meeting clients where they are and working collaboratively toward meaningful and lasting change. To accommodate busy schedules, I offer flexible appointment times, including evenings and weekends.

“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”

― Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

I am a firm believer that life–even the best of lives– has moments of pain and suffering; however great or small. Some come to pass quickly and float away from our consciousness, while others stay with us, shape us, change our relationships and the way we see the world. The rest of our life is filled with moments dependent on how we cope with, process and accept those moments of pain or suffering.
