About Daniel

Daniel Perez is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who helps adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and depression. He speaks English and Spanish and focuses on practical ways to manage feelings and improve connection. Daniel aims for clear, direct sessions that fit into busy lives.

He draws on a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. That can include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for changing unhelpful thoughts, and Attachment-Based work to address relationship patterns. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with time spent on skills people can use between meetings.

Daniel has five years of clinical experience and completed graduate work in counseling psychology after studying psychology at California State University, Fullerton. He has led court-approved groups such as anger management and substance abuse programs in both English and Spanish. That group work complements his individual practice by sharpening practical tools and teaching clear behavioral strategies.

In sessions he emphasizes straightforward coping strategies for grief, trauma, parenting stress, ADHD-related challenges, intimacy issues, and life transitions. He also works with concerns like body image, commitment worries, and career stress. Daniel aims to create a collaborative space where people can name what matters and take steady steps toward it.

How therapy approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take action toward those values. It often uses simple exercises and metaphors to reduce avoidance and build meaningful routines. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and change patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns influence current connections and helps people try new ways of relating in close relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before, then suggest approaches to try. That plan is adjusted over time so the client and therapist decide together what helps most.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online work helps fitting therapy into a busy week, since it can save travel time and make scheduling easier. It can also allow shorter check-ins on a workday, or let someone skip being on camera if that helps them focus. Daniel integrates the chosen therapy methods into whatever session setup is arranged, and uses practical homework and skills to make progress between meetings.
