About Danny
Danny Hicks Jr is an LPCC licensed in California and Minnesota with eight years of clinical experience. He works with people who are managing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and depression. Danny also addresses concerns such as attachment wounds, abandonment, and mood disorders.
Danny uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice difficult feelings and the patterns that follow them. He draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to keep conversations focused on real experiences and practical changes. Sessions center on clear, respectful dialogue and collaborative problem solving.
In a typical session Danny helps people name emotions, track how those emotions shape behavior, and test small shifts in how they respond. He offers tools for stress, strategies for coping with urges tied to addiction, and ways to communicate more directly about painful topics. He also supports work on guilt, shame, and forgiveness when those issues are present.
Danny frames care around the client’s goals and preferences. He adapts conversations and exercises so they fit the person in front of him. Over time clients often build options for responding differently to the same old triggers and patterns.
He conducts sessions in English and accepts international clients. Before scheduling, readers should confirm current session formats and any other practical details.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name intense feelings and see how those feelings affect relationships and behavior. EFT is often used when attachment wounds and repeated emotional patterns are the concern. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and choosing actions that reflect personal values. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Danny will work with the client to decide which methods fit best based on their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. That collaborative process may shift over time as needs change. Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins or more flexible scheduling. When considering online work, think about what helps you stay focused and what timing fits your routine, and then discuss those preferences during the initial matching questionnaire.Areas of expertise
