About Danny
Danny Hicks Jr is a licensed professional clinical counselor with eight years of experience. He focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship trouble, trauma, or depression. He aims to meet clients where they are and talk through practical next steps.
He draws on existential ideas that help people think about meaning, choice, and responsibility in their lives. He pairs that with approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address patterns of thought and behavior.
Background and approach
Sessions are shaped to each person's needs rather than following a fixed script. Danny also works with issues tied to attachment and closeness, including abandonment, communication problems, and forgiveness. He supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiver strain, body image, and mood concerns.
These topics are often connected, so he looks at how one area affects another. His style is respectful and down-to-earth. He listens first, then collaborates on goals and practical steps clients can try between sessions.
Progress is measured in small, usable changes rather than quick fixes. People who reach out can expect clear conversation about what to try next. Danny focuses on helping clients build skills for everyday life while also addressing deeper questions about purpose and values.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Existential Therapy helps people examine life meaning, choice, and responsibility in simple terms. It often fits those wrestling with purpose, big changes, or feeling stuck. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them and choosing actions that match what matters most. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns that limit daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current connection styles and communication. It can help people understand and change how they relate to others.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those priorities. Adjustments are made together based on what helps most in real life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into a busy schedule. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be a quicker check-in and use less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief updates, journaling between sessions, or reaching out when a short touchpoint helps. These options make it possible to keep therapy consistent across work, travel, or life changes.
