Getting to know Dr. Daniela Schreier
I believe the quality of our relationships determines our level of success and contentment in both private and professional life. Managing our relationships, emotions, stress, time, and anxiety is essential to achieving a balanced, productive life.
What do I offer? A trusting professional relationship to help you achieve the change you desire. My style is straightforward yet empathic.
Let's face it! There is no trauma-free life or relationship. Our life experiences shape us, but we have the capacity to change direction and reevaluate our careers, lives, and relationships. There are two options: to reject change and remain stuck, or to accept change and learn to be flexible in our approach toward life, relationships, and business.
Helping you get unstuck and move forward is my business. You deserve it, and I care. - DrD.

July 18, 2019Puja A.Verified patient
Dr. Daniela does a great job of letting me vent but also giving feedback. It's so comforting to be able to sit and talk with her about things going on in my life. I try to go at least once a week.
May 15, 2019Christian D.Verified patient
Excellent! Welcoming and warm from the first visit. She has a very balanced and articulate perspective. Her take on my situation eased my worries. Her advice was a clear and she gave me a much needed point of view I was blind to. I would 100% recommend her and Max to anyone that has has a busy life and needs someone who will slow it down.

August 28, 2018Jillian B.Verified patient
Seeing Dr. Shreier has been life changing. She is a wonderful therapist who has helped me deal with a tough period of my life. I am very greatful to her and really appreciate her approach of listening but also engaging in a conversation with you and helping you find answers and resolutions. Her office is also beautiful and inviting and she has an adorable Maltese dog which makes the whole experience that much more pleasant. I would highly recommend her.
March 2, 2018Catalina C.Verified patient
Dr D has been a great psychologist for me. I have seen doctors in the past who when I speak to them I feel that they are a doctor analyzing me, but talking with her feels more like having a conversation with a trusted friend. She clearly has a lot of experience and it makes the whole experience of speaking with someone much more comfortable. Also Max is the cutest!
February 21, 2018Amy M.Verified patient
Dr. Schreier has been a Godsend! Truly she understands people and is the copilot I have needed in my life. No nonsense just compassion and understanding that has helped me to navigate some difficult times in my life.
February 19, 2018Joe C.Verified patient
Dr. Daniela was really nice and I felt like when she was talking/engaging with me she had good advice.
My issue was, when I went to see her the 1st time she seemed really tired, like trying not to yawn etc. I decided to give her a 2nd chance because let's be honest, we're all human and have those days but the 2nd time it was even worse. I don't know if she had just woken up from a nap but she was clearly struggling to keep her eyes open.
Again, when she was talking and engaged I liked her but I will not return as I'm not going to pay money to talk to someone to then feel like they are not able to fully engage with me because they are so exhausted.

Very weird experience overall. She had a dog that bit me twice as I walked in. We sat in a very small table together and it felt very forced.
Would not recommend. Would never go back.
July 8, 2017Ben R.Verified patient
Personable and professional, Dr. Schreier listened with care, provided comforting feedback and shared resources (books) that she felt would be of interest to me and help me on my journey.
