Daniel Blackwood, MA, LPCC
Daniel specializes in trauma recovery, and works with individuals, couples and partners who want to recover from intimacy issues, from gambling problems, as well as recovery from other mental illnesses and addictions.
Author of “Integrity Recovery”, and Co-Author of “Minding the Body, Embodying the Mind”, Daniel teaches, supervises, and loves the work of therapy and the results that it can bring to the clients he and his colleagues and supervisees serves.
“I support our therapists at The Evolution Group, Inc. to meet each of our clients where they are as a person, whether individually, as a couple, in a family or a group, to walk in their shoes, to see the glimmer of their wholeness, and to understand them deeply at a feeling level and within their family and cultural context. The resulting attachment will form a therapeutic relationship that is transforming. In this way each client will feel the inner motivation to heal, and grow, and to recognize and manifest his or her unique potential. My
goal is to strive for excellence at this.”
“It is not what happens to us that matters most. What matters most is how we relate to what happens to us.”
“Through the warm and respectful bond that exists between us, my clients have an opportunity to heal from trauma and come to have clarity about how they feel. They begin to make different choices for themselves. They feel better, have more flow in their lives, and learn to choose and act with more mindful intention. My clients learn that they are deep, mysterious, and wonderfully unique. I find that down deep my clients, my colleagues, and people in general, are whole and the point of therapy is to empower the wholeness that lies within them. My mission is to light the way.”
