About Daniel

Daniel Jansen is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Oregon with eight years of professional experience. He focuses on practical, person-focused therapy that centers the client's strengths and goals. He often helps people who are managing depression, low self-esteem, stress, and parenting challenges.

He works from a straightforward, respectful stance that treats the client as the expert on their life. Sessions are aimed at identifying what is working, building on strengths, and trying small changes that can make daily life easier. Conversations are direct and supportive without being rushed.

His practice includes tools from cognitive behavioral work to help with difficult thoughts and behaviors. He also uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to each person. When needed he brings in skills from dialectical behavior approaches and motivational techniques to support emotion regulation and commitment to change.

Daniel has experience helping people navigate relationship and family concerns, trauma and grief, sleep problems, and life transitions. He supports fathers handling parenting strains and men facing issues with purpose and self-worth. He also works with people dealing with ADHD, bipolar concerns, anger, and compassion fatigue.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's priorities. The therapist creates space to talk through what matters most and helps people clarify their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, emphasizes identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often used for depression, anxiety, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers practical skills for handling strong emotions and improving relationships, and can help with anger and emotional overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit the client's needs, and adjust based on what helps. This is a collaborative process where the client’s preferences guide which strategies are used.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people practice skills in their everyday environment and bring real-life examples to sessions. Ask about session formats and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements match your routine and goals.
