About Daniel
Daniel Navarro is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with four years of experience. He focuses on depression, grief, trauma, and addiction while also addressing the difficult feelings that come with those struggles such as shame, guilt, and low self-esteem. Daniel speaks English and Spanish and works with adults seeking practical change.
He helps people who have trouble putting others first, those who live around someone else's drinking, and people feeling stuck by people-pleasing. He also supports men, veterans, military personnel, and first responders with issues tied to isolation, life purpose, and self-love. Daniel frames these concerns in plain terms and talks through them directly.
In sessions he listens for patterns that keep someone repeating the same harmful choices. He points out how guilt, shame, or loyalty can get in the way of setting boundaries. Then he practices small, concrete steps with the person to try in everyday life.
Daniel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, addiction, and low self-worth. He works collaboratively to identify aims and tests what helps most. Progress is tracked in clear, practical ways so people know what changed and what to adjust.
To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The service uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Before booking, confirm current session options to make sure they fit your needs.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Daniel works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on what changes behavior and feelings. One common approach he uses helps people process trauma by safely recounting and reworking distressing memories so those memories lose some of their emotional hold. This can reduce flashbacks and lessen the power of painful reminders.Another approach focuses on addiction and urges by teaching skills to manage cravings and rebuild routines. That work emphasizes small, repeatable actions that interrupt old patterns and strengthen healthier alternatives. Both approaches are practical and aimed at everyday improvement rather than labels.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Daniel will discuss options, listen to your goals, and try methods that match your needs and preferences. He checks in regularly to see what’s working and shifts course if something isn’t helping.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule by reducing travel and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also accommodate people who prefer not to be on camera or who need a quieter setup with lower bandwidth during a call.
