Dr Dan Guerra

Clinical Psychologist

A compassionate professional with over 20 years of psychotherapy experience addressing trauma, anxiety, depression, and chronic pain. MindBodySpirit

About Me

I offer a compassionate space for individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and chronic pain. Drawing on over 20 years’ experience, I help clients understand the links between mind, body, and spirit. We can explore how these elements intertwine, helping you find a path to greater balance. This approach supports those seeking deeply integrated healing, moving beyond symptoms to foster lasting well-being.

Approach

Guided by an integrated lens, I focus on how thoughts, sensations, and values interact to untangle persistent symptoms and rebuild daily rhythms. In New York City and online, in English, sessions move at a steady, goal-attentive pace—mixing careful assessment, grounding mindfulness, and targeted exploration of trauma and chronic pain—so you leave with practical ways to manage between meetings. I collaborate closely on skill practice and regular check-ins to track change. This approach often fits people seeking steady, thoughtful integration of emotional and physical healing.
