He has further trauma and attachment training from the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute, grounding his therapeutic approach in working with body based memories in resolving traumatic experiences as well as the neurological implications of attachment and stress. 

Daniel is also a Certified Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapist through the Integrative Psychiatry Institute. Daniel is excited to support the cutting edge of mental health treatment through his decades long research and work integrating trauma treatment with the transpersonal and contemplative realms of human experience. He trains and offers Preparation and Integration psychedelic services to those seeking alternative paths to their mental wellness.
