Logotherapist, Mental Health & Addictions Counselor
I specialize in Viktor Frankl’s Logotherapy – the Psychology of Meaning, and I hold licenses in Mental Health Counseling and Clinical Addictions Counseling. I’ve spent the past 25 years working with individuals, families, and businesses to help improve existential crises, communication, culture, relational dynamics, and conflict management, and a variety of other issues. That’s an estimated 50,000 hours of 1:1 consultation and group facilitation. I help people understand the importance of MEANING, PURPOSE, and RESILIENCE through my work with The Meaning Project Community, Cardeon, The Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), Ketamine Assisted Therapy and various other endeavors. To learn more, have a look at my About (link) section, or reach out to discuss how I can help you.
Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy
I’ve completed years of study in the emerging, yet ancient, field of psychedelic assisted psychotherapy, and was certified through the Integrative Psychiatry Institute in May of 2025. Psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy is a therapeutic approach that combines traditional talk therapy with the guided use of psychedelic substances—such as Ketamine, psilocybin, MDMA, or LSD—under professional supervision. The aim is to create altered states of consciousness that can help people access thoughts, emotions, and memories in ways that may be difficult in ordinary states of mind. While Ketamine and Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is entirely legal throughout all 50 states, other psychedelic substances have varying degrees of legality in the US.

The ground shook this past Saturday morning - figuratively speaking. And then I started shaking - really. The adrenaline was just too much for my sleep deprived body to handle. I had just gotten back from a week-long trip to Costa Rica reviewing and assessing...
What If Happiness Isn’t the Goal?
Dr. Viktor Frankl taught me that, "success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrend to a person other than...
Loneliness Isn’t Just About Being Alone
I am seeing this an awful lot in my office lately. People feeling "lonely", despite having a lot of friends, or perhaps even being married. When we think about loneliness, we often picture someone who is physically alone. Someone without relationships. Someone...
Once you’ve built up the courage to seek help, it can sometimes take a few days to get in touch and schedule an appointment. That is one of the reasons I created The Meaning Project Podcast and the Youtube Channel to go along with it. I hope you can find some guidance or even ideas to put into your life there. Take care. – Dan
