Daniel Sorensen, LICSW

Daniel Sorensen is a licensed clinical social worker with 17 years of experience helping people through stressful life moments. He focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, compassion fatigue, LGBT concerns, and coping with life changes. Daniel aims to make the first steps toward help feel straightforward and manageable.

He uses a direct, collaborative style that centers the person in the work. Sessions focus on what matters now - reducing stress, managing anxiety, handling loss, and finding direction after big changes. Conversation, reflection, and practical strategies are mixed to match each person's pace and needs.

Daniel draws on client-centered methods to keep sessions grounded in the client's experience. He also weaves in existential ideas about meaning and choice, and mindfulness practices to build calmer day-to-day routines. Narrative work is used when people want to reframe painful stories about themselves.

In practice he pays attention to real-life demands like work, caregiving, and health concerns, and adapts goals to what is doable between sessions. People who worry about communication, commitment, or family history find concrete ways to move forward. He also supports those facing first responder stresses and challenges tied to aging, chronic illness, or bereavement.

Daniel is licensed in Washington as a LICSW and offers services in English. He welcomes people from diverse backgrounds and accepts international clients. To begin, visitors should use the site Start Therapy flow to match and schedule a session.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Daniel often uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening closely and following the client's lead so they feel understood and respected. This approach helps when people need space to sort through feelings and decide their own next steps.

He also draws on mindfulness therapy to teach simple practices for reducing reactivity and staying present. Those techniques can help with anxiety, stress, and grief by building small daily habits that calm nervousness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, values, and life situation. That decision is revisited as progress is made and circumstances change.

Confirm the session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, and maintain continuity when life changes. Some people prefer shorter check-ins that work around a lunch break, while others plan longer sessions for deeper reflection. Discussing how sessions will fit into everyday life is a normal early step in the process.
