About Daniel
Daniel Wongthavatchai is a licensed clinical social worker in California with 15 years of experience. He focuses on practical ways to manage stress, anxiety, anger, and mood concerns while supporting people who are juggling parenting and attention difficulties. He speaks English and offers online options to fit different schedules.
He uses straightforward, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people name what’s happening and try small changes that can make daily life easier.
Background and approach
Sessions are meant to be a calm place to talk without judgment and to practice new ways of handling strong feelings. He pays attention to problems like impulsivity, concentration, and panic so clients can build better routines and coping skills. Daniel often works on underlying patterns such as attachment concerns, abandonment worries, guilt and shame, and control issues.
He also supports people exploring life purpose, forgiveness, and communication problems. His approach is practical and focused on goals the client sets, with steps you can try between sessions. Therapy can include brief coaching on behavior, help with emotional regulation, and guidance for parents managing stress.
He aims to empower people to make steady changes rather than promising quick fixes. Over time, clients learn tools to respond differently when anger, panic, or low mood arise. To begin, he asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions based on availability.
Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Daniel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps people can use between sessions. One approach emphasizes emotional regulation and skill building to help manage anger, panic, and anxiety. It teaches short, repeatable strategies to reduce intensity and regain control during difficult moments.Another approach concentrates on attention and behavioral strategies for people with focus and memory concerns. This involves breaking tasks into smaller parts, establishing routines, and using simple tools to improve concentration and daily functioning.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist works collaboratively to learn what matters most to the client, then adapts methods to fit their goals and preferences. Together they try different techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins, pacing thoughts over time, and staying connected between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still working on anger, anxiety, parenting, and focus issues.
