How Dan works
Dr. Moen uses a mix of well-known methods to match each person’s needs. He draws on approaches that address thoughts and behaviors, emotional bonds, and acceptance of difficult feelings.
That variety helps when someone needs skills, deeper understanding, or both. In practical terms he teaches tools people can use between sessions. These include ways to notice unhelpful thinking, practice new behaviors, and handle strong emotions.
He also helps with communication skills and repairing trust when relationships feel strained. With six years of clinical experience, Dr. Moen focuses on steady progress rather than quick fixes.
He encourages small steps that build confidence over time. People who want clear guidance and a respectful, calm approach often seek his help.

Online support options
How approaches like ACT and CBT translate online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without letting them control actions. Online sessions can use ACT to focus on values and small steps that fit a person's daily life, such as practicing new behaviors between meetings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thinking patterns and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In remote sessions the therapist and client work together on specific exercises, homework, and tracking progress over time.
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional patterns. In an online setting this approach can help a person understand relationship reactions and try new ways of connecting and communicating.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then adapt methods as progress unfolds. That collaboration helps tailor sessions to what a person needs at any stage.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility: video calls for full discussion, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for quick check-ins, and text-based messaging for brief updates or reflection. Those options make it easier to fit care into a busy life and to keep momentum between meetings.
