About Dan

Daniel Chung has over twenty years of wide-ranging experience working with people in all stages of life. 

He is a creative, dedicated therapist who is passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families by coming alongside them, listening with empathy, helping to make sense of their concerns and needs, and providing vital tools to grow and thrive in life.

Daniel focuses on providing a safe, nurturing, and judgment-free space that enables clients to heal and positively progress by fostering their agency to empower them to leverage their positive qualities toward lasting, satisfying, and harmonious relationships.

He believes in holistic healing toward emotional, spiritual, and relational wellness that activates the mind, body, and spirit, and usher into deeper self-realization, purposeful living, better conflict management, and healthier coping skills over stress and grief.

Neurodiverse Relationships

Most neurodiverse couples are uninformed about their differences and how to support each other which can lead to misunderstanding, challenges in communication, the lack of emotional reciprocity, and failure to maintain a meaningful balance between partners and with others.

Daniel works with neurodiverse couples to nurture awareness in each partner of their painful cycle of blame, shame, control, and escape, to enhance their understanding of selves and each other, and help reshape their patterns to reflect increased love and trust in the relationship by offering structure and practical tools to make progress on the challenges to their special relationship.

He aims to provide a space that enables vulnerability, honesty, and collaboration to gain a fresh understanding and perspective of the neurodivergent partner’s behaviors and the neurotypical partner’s feelings, and use combined strengths and resilience.
