About Daniel
Daniel Echols is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, parenting strain, low self-esteem, grief, relationship problems, and life transitions. He offers a calm, listening presence so people feel heard and guided toward clearer choices. He frames work around what matters most to each person.
Daniel uses a mix of approaches to match individual needs. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values.
How Daniel works
He uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at close relationships and how early bonds shape current reactions. Client-Centered work means sessions focus on the person in front of him. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) are also part of his toolkit when they fit the situation.
Sessions move at a practical pace. Daniel listens closely, reflects what he hears, and offers simple exercises and experiments to try between meetings. He emphasizes discovering what the client already knows about their needs and strengths.
The goal is not to rush but to build clearer direction and steadier coping over time. Daniel brings 23 years of experience as a counselor and integrates spiritual perspectives when clients find that helpful. He welcomes conversations about values and meaning alongside concrete skills for daily challenges.
He adapts methods to match each person’s goals. Work is offered in English and delivered online through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary by location and therapist availability.

Approaches that guide online therapy
Daniel often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then choose actions that reflect what matters to them. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, and situations where values and meaning matter.He also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds influence current reactions. That approach helps when relationship issues, communication problems, or attachment-related worries feel central.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to prioritize and adjust as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or being on camera is an issue. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between meetings or use shorter touchpoints during busy days. These options make scheduling more flexible and let therapy fit into work, caregiving, and day-to-day life.
