About Daniel Romo

Daniel Romo is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California who brings a decade of experience supporting individuals, families, and youth. He earned a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from California State University Fullerton and completed a Master of Marriage and Family Therapy with a specialization in Trauma and Latinx Studies at Pacific Oaks College. Early in his career he worked in residential mental health beginning in 2011 as a Mental Health Wellness Specialist, where he taught life skills and supported cognitive and emotional functioning for at-risk youth.

Romo began clinical practice with school-based services and designated instructional support in the Pasadena area in 2015, and he has since worked across non-profit agencies and community wellness settings. That work included individual, family, and group counseling on a wide range of concerns such as mood disorders, attention and impulse-control challenges, substance use, anger management, and interpersonal difficulties. He has experience serving diverse populations, including members of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing community, and a particular interest in increasing access to care for clients who often rely on community agencies for services.

His approach is client-centered and culturally attentive, drawing on training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT, Family Systems, Object Relations, and existential and humanistic frameworks. Romo emphasizes collaborative, individualized planning to help clients set and work toward meaningful short- and long-term goals.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Daniel Romo integrates Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside Mindfulness-based techniques to address a range of concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so clients feel heard and empowered to explore values, relationships, and life goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life transitions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and grounding practices that can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation, which is helpful for trauma-related symptoms, burnout, and ongoing stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Romo collaborates with each person to determine which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts plans as progress unfolds. This collaborative process ensures therapy aligns with the client’s values and circumstances.

Online therapy allows similar methods to be delivered through flexible formats. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it possible to engage in skill-building, reflective conversations, and brief check-ins without geographic limits. These options can make consistent care easier to schedule and maintain while supporting practical access to licensed professionals and therapists who can tailor treatment to each client’s life.
