About

About Daniel

Daniel Romo is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with ten years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, depression, grief, self-esteem, codependency, and related issues.

He uses straightforward talk and goal-focused work. Sessions look at what is getting in the way day to day and what small changes could make life easier. He blends client-centered listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches to help people try new ways of coping.

Romo trained in marriage and family therapy and completed a master's degree with a specialization in trauma and Latinx studies. Early in his career he provided school-based services and worked with residential youth, which gave him experience with crisis work and teaching life skills.

He has worked at nonprofit agencies and community programs, offering individual and group support. That work included helping people manage severe depression, impulse-control struggles, substance use concerns, and relationship problems. He has also worked with the Deaf and Hard of Hearing community and with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds.

In sessions he helps people set short- and long-term goals and checks in on what is realistic given personal circumstances. He pays attention to cultural background and practical limits when planning next steps. The aim is clearer boundaries, more effective communication, and coping skills that fit everyday life.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and remote sessions

Daniel often blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness methods. Client-centered work focuses on listening and building a plan based on what matters to the person. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional awareness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, day-to-day challenges, and preferences, then try approaches that fit those needs. That collaborative process helps decide which tools to use and how to pace the work.

Session formats are not listed explicitly in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow quicker check-ins between appointments. They also allow for options that may be easier when you need a shorter conversation or cannot be on camera. Ask about the available formats when scheduling so sessions match practical needs.
