About Danny
Danny Hicks Jr is a licensed professional counselor with eight years of experience. He focuses on Mindfulness Therapy alongside several evidence-informed approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship challenges, trauma, and depression.
He listens with patience and adjusts sessions to each person’s needs. Sessions are built around respectful and practical conversation. The goal is to identify what feels stuck and try small, usable changes that fit daily life.
Background work includes supporting people dealing with attachment and abandonment concerns, mood disorders, caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, and problems with communication or control. He also addresses issues like guilt, shame, impulsivity, loneliness, and figuring out life purpose or money stress.
Danny uses a mix of approaches that may include acceptance and commitment techniques, cognitive behavioral tools, and client-centered discussion. Attachment-based ideas can shape how relationships and patterns are understood in sessions.
He is licensed in California and Minnesota as an LPCC. Sessions are conducted in English, and he is open to working with international clients. To begin, a simple matching questionnaire and scheduling step connects people to the right time and plan.
How Mindfulness and Acceptance Can Work Online
Mindfulness Therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and simple practices that help reduce reactivity to stress and difficult thoughts. It can be useful for anxiety, mood problems, and coping with urges related to addictions.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and how early bonds shape current connection and trust. Both are often used to understand and change relationship and communication patterns.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and make decisions together about which methods to try. That collaborative process helps shape session focus over time.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm what is currently offered before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a routine, manage regular check-ins without travel, and try brief skill practice between meetings. Therapists can adapt mindfulness exercises and ACT techniques for use in scheduled sessions to match a person’s daily life.
These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
