About Daniel
Daniel Echols is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 23 years of clinical experience. He works with stress, anxiety, addictions, parenting concerns, self-esteem, coping with life changes, LGBT issues, relationships, family problems, grief, career questions, depression, and coaching needs.
Daniel uses a person-centered approach while drawing on Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, cognitive behavioral tools, and existential perspectives. He listens for the underlying feelings and attachment patterns that often shape how people respond to stress and relationships. Sessions aim to name emotions, notice patterns, and try small, practical changes that can shift daily life.
He describes his faith perspective as open and welcoming and integrates spiritual themes when clients want that included. Daniel emphasizes helping people hear their own values and inner sense of what matters, then testing new actions that reflect those values. That can look like learning to speak up, changing unhelpful behaviors, or building steadier routines.
Appointments are goal-focused and conversational. He uses established therapeutic techniques alongside creative exploration to help people find clearer direction. The practical emphasis is on recognizing attachment patterns, responding differently to triggers, and developing habits that support emotional balance.
Daniel works in Texas and conducts sessions in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking and follow the site's process to match and schedule a first meeting.
Approaches used online and how they help
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with strong emotions and attachment needs that drive relationship patterns. It helps people name feelings and shift how they respond to others. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing inner experiences and choosing actions that match personal values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early bonding and current relational habits to understand recurring conflicts and closeness struggles.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting the focus as needed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also support continuity during life changes and let people work with licensed professionals from their own region while focusing on emotions, values, and relationship patterns.
