About Danny
Danny Hicks Jr is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in California. He brings eight years of clinical experience to conversations about stress, anxiety, addiction, relationships, trauma, and depression. He focuses on clear guidance and practical steps so people feel understood and able to move forward.
Danny aims to build a respectful, sensitive space where clients can speak honestly about what’s hard. He listens closely and adjusts sessions to each person’s needs instead of using the same plan for everyone.
Background and approach
He emphasizes compassionate support and collaborative problem solving. His work often draws on attachment ideas to notice how early bonds shape current relationship patterns. He also uses methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help change unhelpful thoughts and actions.
These approaches are mixed together to match what each person brings into the room. Common topics he addresses include abandonment, attachment issues, communication problems, control and impulsivity, guilt and shame, and isolation or loneliness. He also supports people facing chronic pain or illness, caregiver stress, body image concerns, money or life-purpose questions, and the fallout of divorce or separation.
Danny describes therapy as a team effort. He helps clients set realistic goals and practices skills between sessions. Progress is discussed in plain language so people can see what’s working and what might need to change.

Online support
Working with attachment and behavior-focused therapies online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early patterns of relating affect current relationships and emotional responses. Online sessions can help people spot repeating patterns, practice new ways of connecting, and repair trust and closeness in important relationships. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical skills for noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and taking small steps toward a valued life. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression, and situations where avoidance keeps someone from living how they want.Danny will collaborate with each person to find the right mix of approaches. He talks with clients about goals and preferences, then adapts techniques from attachment work, ACT, CBT, or DBT as needed. That collaborative planning helps people test what feels useful and change course if something isn’t helping.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper relational work, while phone sessions can be easier when less bandwidth is available or a brief check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter updates, skill practice between sessions, and people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and try approaches that match individual goals.
