About
Daniel Patten is a California-based therapist with 25 years of professional experience. He is a licensed clinical social worker in California, a state credential that reflects advanced training and authorization to provide psychotherapy (CA LCSW 16309).
Across his career he has worked with people facing addictions, relationship issues, grief and loss, and depression. His practice focuses on supporting clients through these challenges while honoring their individual journeys.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?
Many people ask whether online therapy really helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable to traditional in-person sessions for most cases.
One major benefit is flexibility - clients can choose the format that fits their life, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This makes it easier to attend sessions without rearranging daily routines.
Therapists offering remote services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch therapists if they decide a different fit would be better. For many people, the combination of effectiveness and convenience makes online therapy a practical option to explore.
