About Dan

Dr. Dan Moen is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship pain, and struggles with addiction. He also supports those coping with grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, sleep problems, career transitions, and compassion fatigue. Dr. Moen aims to make therapy understandable and practical for people under pressure.

In sessions he focuses on building clear goals and useful skills. He uses a mix of approaches to help people manage emotions, communicate better, and handle life changes. Conversations are direct but caring, with time spent both on immediate coping strategies and longer-term growth.

Dr. Moen draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and increase meaningful action. He also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to improve connection patterns and create a supportive space for honest work. Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are added when people need emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills.

With six years of clinical experience as an LMFT in Minnesota, he brings practical know-how to common struggles like codependency, communication problems, commitment fears, and family of origin issues. He helps people untangle patterns that keep them stuck and practice new ways of relating.

People who choose Dr. Moen can expect a collaborative process. He works with each person to set goals, try new skills, and track progress over time. Before booking, confirm the current session options available.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and making meaningful life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to change patterns that cause distress. It is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and try methods that fit their needs. That conversation guides whether ACT, CBT, attachment-focused ideas, or DBT skills are emphasized over time.

Because session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm which online options are currently offered before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes consistent work on coping skills and communication practice possible from wherever appointments are scheduled, helping people maintain momentum between visits.
