About Dan
Dr. Dan Moen is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Minnesota who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, and sleep difficulties. He also supports those coping with depression, grief, intimacy-related concerns, and career or life changes. His manner is calm and direct, and he focuses on clear steps people can use between sessions.
In sessions he aims to make things understandable. He listens for patterns that keep problems going and helps people spot small changes that make a difference. He uses practical tools so clients can try new ways of thinking and acting and then see what works in real life.
Dr. Moen draws on several well-established approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy. He also integrates Client-Centered and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools when they fit a person's needs. Together these methods support work on coping skills, managing strong emotions, and improving relationships with others.
He brings six years of clinical experience to sessions and emphasizes collaboration. He helps people set clear goals, track progress, and adjust methods when something isn’t helping. Many clients focus on better sleep habits, reducing worry, or overcoming problematic substance use.
People who reach out can expect straightforward guidance and practical exercises. Dr. Moen encourages questions and adapts pacing to each person's situation. He asks clients to treat therapy as a hands-on process with small steps toward lasting change.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thinking and refocus on values-based action. It can be useful for anxiety, sleep struggles, and getting unstuck from avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at connections between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and uses step-by-step exercises to reduce symptoms like worry or depressive thinking. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in relationships and how earlier bonds shape current reactions; it can help with intimacy, communication problems, and trust issues.Finding the right approach is often part of the first weeks of work. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan together. That collaborative process makes it easier to know which tools help most for sleep, mood, or relationship concerns.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy day. Online work can reduce travel time and make it simpler to keep regular sessions around work or caregiving demands. Confirm current session formats before booking, since the biography does not specify which formats are offered. The focus in online sessions remains the same: clear goals, actionable exercises, and regular check-ins to see what’s helping.
