Daniel Girgis

My communication style

My style is warm and unhurried. The priority early on is that you feel genuinely understood. I won't push harder than you're ready for, but as trust builds, our conversations will challenge you, helping you see yourself more honestly and move toward taking action.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to this work by a longstanding fascination with how people make meaning, from Socrates pressing Athenians to examine their lives to Jung mapping the depths of the psyche. I wanted to follow in the tradition of those who took the inner life seriously. That curiosity never left, and it became a career.

My goals for you

My approach is structured and collaborative. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you build the courage to face fears that may be keeping you from moving forward. I also integrate person-centered and psychodynamic approaches to create space for honest communication with yourself and a deeper understanding of your identity.

Our first session

Our first session will focus on completing a thorough assessment so I can better understand your current concerns that bring you to therapy, history, and strengths. This session may feel more structured, as I want to gather enough information to understand the bigger picture so that our work together can be intentional, and focused on your needs.
