More about Daniel

  • 12 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCSW

As a licensed therapist in California, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients explore self-love, address communication challenges, and heal from experiences of isolation, trauma, and social anxiety.

With a deep commitment to understanding intersectional experiences, I provide culturally responsive care that honors diverse identities and lived experiences. My approach is particularly attuned to the unique challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals, men, and those confronting multicultural concerns.

I draw from evidence-based practices to help clients develop resilience, process challenging emotions, and cultivate meaningful connections. Whether you're struggling with life transitions, relationship dynamics, or personal growth, I offer a compassionate, affirming space to explore your journey.

My therapeutic work is grounded in understanding the profound impact of identity, systemic challenges, and personal history. I'm dedicated to supporting clients as they build self-understanding, challenge internalized narratives, and move toward more authentic, empowered lives.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Daniel is not only knowledgeable but versed in trauma treatment. He has been a God send to me and has literally given me hope in ways I thought were no longer possible. He is magnificent and you are lucky if you are assigned to him.

Daniel Marshall is simply the best. After 42 minutes of me dumping my life's problems he took the last 3 to extract a valuable key point that helped me navigate what i was going through with ease and grace. Incredible.

I love that I am working with a black man therapist who can address my needs culturally. I have wanted a therapist, but always felt overwhelmed of where do I begin? He was the first therapist through Better Help after answering the guided questionnaire and it was an instant connection. He is very professional, but isn’t so stuffy that it isn’t difficult to talk to him. I am glad that I have the opportunity to work with him!
