Christian Daman, M.S., LPC

Hello, my name is Christian (He/Him), and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a master’s degree in professional counseling and emphasis on trauma. I have been in the counseling field for multiple years and have practical experience in both the hospitalization and outpatient/group setting. I have experience working with children, teenagers, and adults with a focus on anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, bullying, gender dysphoria, obsessive thoughts, suicidal ideation, and ADHD. My theoretical approaches include the following: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Art, and Play Therapy, Person-Centered, and elements of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy with emphasis on mindfulness.

I have been asked why I chose to work as a therapist and my answer is always the same: there is no bigger badge of honor than having the trust of someone else as they open themselves to you about their challenges in life. The world is a tough place and we do not need to do it alone, which is my mission statement to provide a safe place for people to talk. To create a pocket in this world that is judgment free and to make the person feel heard and supported. Change comes with time and acceptance; both are given when you collaborate with me. Collaborate being the key word as you are the expert in your life, I am simply a partner to help guide and explore what needs to be explored!
