About Daniel
Daniel Echols is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, parenting struggles, and low self-esteem. He also supports people facing life changes, grief, career concerns, relationship and family problems, and questions about life purpose. He brings a calm, direct style and aims to give each person a steady place to talk and think things through.
He listens first, then helps identify what feels most urgent.
Background and approach
Sessions mix practical skills, honest reflection, and guidance toward clearer priorities. He uses approaches that center the person, focus on values, and address attachment and emotional patterns to guide the work. Daniel describes his practice as open to spirituality and faith when clients wish to include that in sessions.
He integrates familiar therapeutic tools with space for creative exploration and personal meaning. That can mean working on behavior changes, shifting unhelpful thinking, or practicing new ways to relate to others and to oneself. With 23 years of experience, he aims to be straightforward and compassionate.
He wants to help people find clearer direction and more consistent wellbeing. His manner is down-to-earth and hopeful, with a focus on practical next steps. Sessions are offered in English and are provided through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Daniel works from person-centered, acceptance and commitment, attachment-based, cognitive behavioral, and emotionally-focused approaches to match a client’s needs.

How his approaches fit online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, addictions, and decisions about parenting or life direction. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonding affects trust and emotional responses. It can help with family problems, communication struggles, and issues around fatherhood or caregiver stress.Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they adapt techniques and pace so the work matches real-life needs and timing.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can work well when a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer brief moments to process thoughts or get coaching between full sessions. These options support flexibility while keeping focus on concrete skills, values-driven decisions, and improving everyday relationships.
