About Daniel
Daniel Seitz is a licensed clinical social worker in Indiana with 35 years of experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and trauma. He aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where people can say what they are feeling and thinking.
Taking a first step toward change is often hard, and he treats that step with respect. In sessions he uses clear, practical methods to address problems.
Background and approach
He often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and habits that keep pain alive. He helps people work on panic, mood shifts, and addictive patterns through hands-on tools and steady support. Daniel also addresses relationship strain, communication problems, and issues tied to family of origin.
He helps clients facing grief, guilt, shame, and questions of life purpose. He works with attachment and abandonment wounds and the impact these have on self-esteem and day-to-day coping. When trauma and post-traumatic stress are present, he focuses on stabilizing symptoms first.
He supports people working through dissociation, self-harm urges, or process addictions like gambling or porn. He also helps with bipolar mood challenges and managing medication-related concerns alongside other providers when needed. Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented.
He explains techniques in plain language and practices skills together in session. The overall aim is to reduce distress and build habits that help people move forward with more control and confidence.
CBT-based care and online session options
Daniel commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a hands-on approach that looks at how thoughts and actions affect feelings. CBT breaks problems into small parts and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, depression, panic, and addictive behaviors. It focuses on changing patterns step by step so daily coping gets easier.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and comfort level. Together they review what helps, adjust the plan, and try new strategies until a useful fit emerges.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions may be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text are useful for shorter check-ins, quick problem-solving, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum between meetings.
