About Daniel

Daniel Dyjak uses practical, evidence-based therapy to help people manage stress and emotional pain. He is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, working in Texas with ten years of professional experience. Daniel speaks English and Spanish and focuses on clear, direct conversations that help people make changes they can keep.

He commonly addresses anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, trauma and abuse, and issues around relationships and intimacy. He also supports people facing parenting challenges, sleep and eating problems, and career-related stress.

Background and approach

His background includes work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral concerns, including ADHD and compassion fatigue. Sessions are shaped to the individual. Daniel blends methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy depending on what fits.

He keeps sessions practical and focused on the next steps a person can try between meetings. Daniel emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and steady support. He will work with each person to set realistic goals and a treatment plan that feels manageable.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and he aims to make that step easier to take. Daniel’s practice uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and how online therapy supports them

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people accept painful thoughts and feelings while focusing on values-based actions. It often suits people struggling with anxiety, grief, or life transitions who want to live in line with what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change patterns that cause distress. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and many everyday problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches regulation skills for strong emotions, attention to the present moment, and ways to manage interpersonal conflicts; it is helpful for intense mood swings and relationship stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Daniel will discuss these options and choose what fits a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. He approaches treatment collaboratively and adjusts methods over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy allows the same therapeutic methods to be used through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options offer flexibility for busy schedules, reduce the need to travel, and let people keep continuity of care from home or other locations. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and check-ins to each format so therapy can move forward in a way that fits daily life.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
