About Daniel

Daniel Twyman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LICSW, LCSW) based in New Jersey who brings 12 years of clinical and coaching experience to his practice.

Background and approach

He focuses on a broad range of concerns including relationship and family challenges, parenting, self-esteem, coping with life changes, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, anger, career issues, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

He also works with problems related to abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, blended family dynamics, codependency, and financial or career purpose questions. His counseling style is described as warm and interactive, emphasizing respect, sensitivity, and compassion while avoiding stigmatizing labels.

Daniel integrates evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness strategies, and motivational interviewing to tailor conversations and treatment plans to each client’s needs. He frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at practical coping skills, clearer perspectives, and stronger relationships.

Clients seeking a pragmatic yet empathetic approach will find a clinician who blends coaching and psychotherapy skills to support life transitions and emotional healing. Daniel accepts English-speaking clients and offers services to international clients as well.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care

Daniel frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and modify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. He also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationship patterns influence current interactions and emotional responses, which can be useful for intimacy issues, attachment difficulties, and family dynamics. Where appropriate, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are incorporated to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for clients managing intense emotions or impulsivity.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Daniel works with each person to understand goals, preferences, and life circumstances, then tailors methods and session focus so treatment feels useful and aligned with the client’s priorities.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and locations. These options make it possible to access consistent support while balancing work, family, and travel, and they allow therapists and clients to adapt pacing and communication style to what works best for the work at hand.
