About Daniel
Daniel Jansen is an LCSW licensed in Oregon with eight years of clinical experience. He works with people who want practical help for parenting concerns, anger, motivation, self-esteem, and depression. He focuses on clear skills and small, doable changes rather than long theory talks.
Daniel starts by listening and mapping what is not working day to day. He uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods to identify unhelpful thoughts and routines. Sessions often involve concrete exercises clients can try between meetings to test what helps.
He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques and motivational interviewing when emotion regulation or sticking with goals is a problem. That can look like learning short behavior strategies, attention shifts, or step-by-step plans to break larger problems into manageable tasks.
People commonly bring issues like stress, anxiety, relationship strain, sleep disruption, grief, or challenges tied to fatherhood and family of origin. Daniel lists ADHD, bipolar, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue among areas he addresses, always focusing on what clients want to change first.
Sessions emphasize collaboration. Daniel treats clients as the expert on their lives and helps them apply practical tools to daily routines. He invites people to try small changes, check results, and refine the plan based on what actually works for them.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Daniel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients spot patterns of thought and behavior that maintain stress or low mood; CBT sessions focus on testing small behavioral changes and tracking results. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on the client's priorities and lived experience, letting the client's goals guide session work. When emotional intensity or goal follow-through is an issue he may use Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach brief emotion regulation and distress-tolerance techniques.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Daniel works with clients to decide which methods to try based on their immediate goals and preferences. That means trying one method, checking whether it helps, and adjusting the plan together if needed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, a session that doesn't require travel, or an option that avoids being on camera when bandwidth is low. Licensed professionals generally use online sessions to practice the same CBT exercises and DBT skills they would cover in person, focusing on what can realistically be tried between meetings.
