About Daniel
Daniel "Dan" Norris is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with licenses in Florida and Massachusetts and 20 years of professional experience. He works with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, self-esteem concerns, and depression, and also focuses on communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, self-love, and social anxiety and phobia.
Dan keeps conversation straightforward and practical. He listens to the problem a person brings and helps break it into manageable steps. Sessions focus on skills people can use between meetings as well as talking through what feels stuck in daily life.
His background includes two decades of work across clinical settings. That experience informs how he supports people coping with loss, motivation struggles, and addictive behaviors. He draws on techniques that emphasize clear strategies and repeatable practices rather than long theoretical explanations.
In sessions he adapts the approach to the person’s needs and goals. That can mean building confidence in social situations, rehearsing communication skills, or developing routines that reduce stress. He aims to make the work concrete so small gains are noticeable.
People who value direct, practical conversations about their problems often find this approach useful. Daniel asks straightforward questions and offers tools to practice between meetings. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Daniel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and clear steps. One common approach helps people learn and practice specific coping skills for anxiety and stress, such as breathing, grounding, and breaking problems into smaller tasks. These techniques aim to reduce immediate distress and offer tools to use between sessions.Another approach centers on behavior and routine changes that support mood and recovery from addictive patterns and depression. This involves setting small goals, tracking progress, and adjusting strategies based on what works. That kind of work is useful when someone wants concrete changes in daily habits.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Clients try techniques and give feedback so the plan can be adjusted over time.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed.
