Daniel Herrmann, PsyD

 I’m Daniel Herrmann, a clinical psychologist who is passionate about connecting with my clients and have spent the last 20 years working with adolescents and adults to achieve lasting change in their lives. I practice a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy that leads to more rapid recovery and enables you to become your own therapist and utilize the tools that we will learn together on your own. I will teach you how to change the way you think, allowing you to transform the way you feel. I work with individuals who experience a variety of difficulties including depression, anxiety, perfectionism, procrastination, and the challenges of life transitions whether during the college and post-college years or the transitions later in life such as retirement. With the right tools and support, I believe you can overcome just about any challenge and create the life you’ve always wanted.

What you can expect in therapy

We are going to work together to build practical skills and tools that you can apply every day in real life. Many clients can begin applying these tools and start experiencing tangible improvements, in just a few sessions. Over time, we can build and reinforce these sets of tolls for long-lasting gains.

Therapy will be results-focused and work towards tangible benefits that enable you to function at a higher level and feel better. In therapy, we will verify – and will be accountable through assessments you fill out before and after every session– for making progress towards measurable goals that matter to you. These goals often include:

    • Reduced anxiety.
    • Improved mood and experiencing joy and happinesss again
    • Relationship satisfaction
    • Ability to function in social situations (reducing social anxiety).
    • Moving forward toward defined targets in your personal, work, or academic life.

What not to expect in therapy

Don’t expect endless talking. In therapy, we will work towards short-term results and sustainable improvements. We will focus on actively building skills and solving problems. As we work together, you will change how you think and in turn, change how you are feeling.

Don’t expect a one-size-fits-all therapy approach. We will tailor therapy to your needs, your goals, and your situation. In therapy we will draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Team CBT, Compassion Focused Therapy, Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), The Gottman Method, and other evidence-based therapies.

Don’t expect to stay stuck and overwhelmed. In therapy, we will work actively to help you grow and thrive!
