About the therapist
Dan
I’m a Chicagoan who is also Mexican American and very down to earth, focused, caring, friendly, curious and perceptive as well as supportive, encouraging , empowering, compassionate and nonjudgmental.
I’m deeply connected with Chicago and all its many facets of history, cultures, communities, food and the arts(music, theater, comedy, writing and art). I’m also very connected with nature, the mind and heart and meditation.
Nature, outdoors, mindfulness, meditation, presence and our stories are key points of focus and emphasis in my therapy practice. We have storylines and patterns of thoughts and behaviors that we carry which we need to be more aware of and connect closer with to have a healthier, more open, friendlier relationship with all our feelings and sensations, relationships, interactions and experiences in our lives creating more well being and life balance.
