About Danis
Danis Okang helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family strains, and low self-esteem. He introduces a calm, straightforward approach so people can start making small changes right away. He uses clear language and practical steps rather than jargon.
Danis acknowledges that reaching out takes courage and meets people with respect and compassion. He brings 20 years of clinical experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on skills that can be used between meetings.
How Danis works
Danis adapts conversations and plans to each person’s situation instead of applying a single program to everyone. Common topics he addresses include attachment and abandonment concerns, communication problems, control struggles, and challenges around forgiveness, guilt, or shame. He also works with mood disorders, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and issues like isolation or life-purpose questions.
Practical coping strategies and emotion regulation are frequent parts of the work. Danis integrates several therapeutic methods to fit the person in front of him. He draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts and on acceptance-focused tools to build meaningful action.
He also uses attachment-focused perspectives to look at relationship patterns and client-centered techniques to keep sessions grounded in the client’s goals. Sessions are offered in English and are scheduled to fit each person’s needs. Danis emphasizes collaboration so clients can choose what feels most useful as they move forward.

Online support options
How Danis blends approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and finding direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with practical experiments to reduce symptoms like panic and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and communication, which can help with relationship challenges and feelings of abandonment.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Danis will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then recommend a blend of techniques. That choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief updates, skill coaching between sessions, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
