Daniel Alpiger, LCSW

Daniel Alpiger is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 11 years of clinical experience supporting people through a wide range of life challenges. He works with individuals facing financial hardship, major life transitions, relationship strains, emotional and physical abuse or trauma, and family situations that include a serious mental health diagnosis. He also assists those struggling with depression, anxiety, and other stress-related concerns.

Daniel earned his degree from the University of Texas A&M - Commerce and maintains licensure across multiple states. As an LCSW he is trained to assess, diagnose, and provide therapeutic treatment for mental health concerns, using approaches that emphasize collaboration and practical change.

His style of therapy is interactive and client-centered - Daniel treats each person as the expert on their own life while offering clinical guidance to help them reach their goals. He draws from cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive methods and adapts his approach to match each client’s needs. A successful therapeutic relationship, in his view, leaves people feeling heard, respected, and more capable in daily life.

Daniel encourages clients who are ready to engage in the work of change and is committed to supporting them throughout that process.

Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Daniel often uses client-centered therapy, which emphasizes the client as the expert in their own life and focuses on respect, empathy, and collaboration to support personal growth. This approach helps people who want a supportive space to explore values, relationships, and life decisions.

He also employs cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a practical approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday coping challenges.

Motivational interviewing is another tool he uses when clients are weighing change or feeling uncertain about next steps. This method helps clarify personal motivation and build commitment to goals without pressure.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process - Daniel works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Daniel offers practical flexibility: sessions can take place by video call or phone, or through live chat and text-based messaging, allowing therapy to fit into busy schedules and different comfort levels while maintaining consistent support from a licensed professional.
