About Daniel

Daniel Romo is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in California who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. He often supports people coping with trauma, grief, parenting strain, and self-esteem concerns. His style is warm and straightforward, focused on practical steps people can take right away.

Daniel trained in psychology and marriage and family therapy and has worked in community and nonprofit settings for a decade. Early in his career he provided school-based services and residential support for at-risk youth, helping with life skills and cognitive functioning. That background shaped his interest in accessible care for people from diverse backgrounds.

In sessions he blends client-centered listening with active techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. He also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods to set short-term goals and track progress. The work is collaborative and grounded in the client’s priorities.

He has experience supporting people affected by adoption and foster care, attachment and blended family issues, caregiver stress, and codependency. He has also worked with people navigating divorce, commitment struggles, infidelity, and family-of-origin concerns.

Daniel emphasizes culturally aware care and tailors plans to each person’s needs. He aims to make therapy practical and manageable so clients can apply changes to daily life.

Approaches that translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s perspective and building a respectful working relationship. It helps when someone needs a space to be heard and to clarify what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into manageable parts by linking thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaching practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy teaches attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and support self-awareness in daily life.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals, concerns, and preferences. That means trying methods, checking progress, and adjusting plans together as needed.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how Daniel delivers care. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also supports working on practical skills and homework between sessions in ways that match everyday routines.
