Daniel Sorensen, LICSW

Daniel Sorensen is a licensed clinical social worker with 17 years of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and major life changes. He works with clients who are navigating interpersonal issues and the strain that comes with caregiving, compassion fatigue, or identity-related concerns. Daniel practices in Washington and offers sessions in English.

Daniel builds a calm, respectful space where people can talk through what matters most to them. He focuses on clear goals and practical steps rather than long lectures. Conversations often cover coping strategies for daily stress, ways to manage worry, and methods to process loss or life transitions.

His work draws on client-centered and narrative ways of working, which means the client’s experience leads the pace and focus. He also uses mindfulness techniques to help with stress and existential ideas to look at meaning and purpose. Motivational interviewing tools are used to support change when someone feels stuck.

Daniel has particular experience with LGBT concerns, compassion fatigue, and issues linked to aging and geriatric issues alongside family of origin and blended family challenges. He also assists people dealing with chronic illness, pain, or the emotional fallout from divorce and separation.

Clients can expect a collaborative tone and straightforward suggestions they can try between sessions. Daniel aims to help people build emotional resilience, improve communication, and find steps toward more manageable daily life.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person in the room and follows their pace and priorities. It helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to talk, be heard, and make decisions about next steps. Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about their lives and helps reframe those stories to find new options and meanings. This can be useful for grief, identity, and shifts that come with aging. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and ground difficult emotions, which people can use between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That process may include trying different tools and adjusting the plan as things change.

The practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy day. Online work can reduce travel time and make it simpler to keep regular appointments around medical care, caregiving, or work demands. Because this profile does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking so you know how sessions will be held. Licensed professionals can adapt client-centered, narrative, and mindfulness techniques to work well in remote sessions when needed.
