About Daniel

Daniel Twyman is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than a decade of counseling experience. He aims to help people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. Daniel writes straightforward plans and talks through problems in ways that are easy to use in daily life.

He commonly helps people facing anxiety, depression, and the ups and downs of relationships.

Background and approach

He also supports those dealing with parenting strain, grief, trauma or abuse, and challenges like ADHD and bipolar mood concerns. Daniel pays attention to patterns such as attachment, abandonment, control issues, and codependency when these come up in sessions. His work blends narrative ideas with cognitive-behavioral and attachment-focused approaches.

That means he pays attention to the stories people tell about themselves and looks for practical steps that change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior work are used when people need emotional regulation and clearer boundaries. Sessions tend to be warm and interactive.

Daniel uses plain language and avoids stigmatizing labels. He offers coaching-style guidance when goals are practical, and deeper exploration when people want to understand recurring patterns in their lives. Daniel practices from New Jersey and communicates in English.

He accepts clients from other places as well and works with people to set realistic goals and manageable steps toward change.

Approaches and Online Care that Fit Your Life

Daniel uses Narrative Therapy to help people look at the stories they tell about themselves and identify which parts of those stories they want to keep or change. This approach can be useful for shifting identity-related struggles, life purpose questions, and roles people feel stuck in.

He also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to notice how early patterns of relating show up now. That work helps when intimacy, abandonment, blended family issues, or trust are causing repeated problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to break down unhelpful thoughts and build clear, practical steps for coping with anxiety, depression, and impulsivity.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try interventions that match those needs. Sessions can shift over time as goals change and progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people work face-to-face without travel. Phone sessions are an option when video won't fit, and live chat or text-based messaging can support quick check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats help fit therapy into work breaks, caregiving schedules, or long commutes while keeping treatment consistent and focused.
