Getting to know Daniel Criado

Hi! I am originally from Spain, where I spent the first decade of my professional life studying psychology and opening a successful private practice. I earned my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Psychology from Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Out of a need to leave my comfort zone, I decided to move to the US. Over the last nine years, this has been a thrilling experience in which I have learned a lot, improved my performance as a therapist, and pushed my boundaries, knowledge, and understanding of what my patients go through daily. I believe our personality permeates how we approach therapy, and I think I would probably be described as approachable, fun, flexible, and always willing to explore new things. In my free time, I usually enjoy music venues and practicing sports, as well as the Mediterranean habit of gathering around a table to talk with friends until late hours with some food and wine. I believe in leading a balanced life, and I strive in therapy to help my clients do so on their own terms, means, and timeline. For adults and couples: I can help you with mood disorders, adaptation issues, and professional challenges. I always strive to create a great working relationship with you and to achieve the results you want. I use a mix of CBT, dynamic, and person-centered techniques, focusing on the combination of thoughts, feelings, habits, and past events that might keep you stuck and working toward the change you desire. For families and kids: I can help with issues regarding lack of focus and attention, school difficulties, and disruptive behavior at home, as well as setting boundaries and rules. I use a mix of play therapy to help the child express themselves and work with the family in setting rules, behaviors, and habits that create a positive environment for the child's growth. Additionally, I hold a Master's degree from the City College of New York, which has further enriched my clinical skills and cultural understanding.
