Daniel Perlmutter, MSW-I

I see therapy as a collaboration. We will work together on defining, learning from, and growing through your past to create a present, and future where you can live authentically and be your true self. Therapy takes time and there are no magic fixes. I offer clients a chance to foster a personal practice of change. Whether we work together long term, or I am a stop on your journey, I am committed to being a safe and compassionate collaborator. 

Modality & Approach

In my therapy practice I am drawn to working in an interpersonal psychodynamic modality. I also have experience working in CBT and trauma informed therapies. I see continuities through many different therapy modalities. Part of my client centered practice means finding a therapeutic language that makes sense for you.

Self-Care Statement

As an artist, I welcome chances to engage in creative ways of living and engaging with the world around us.
