Professional Background
Hello there, I am Dan Kimball, MC LPC, a devoted professional committed to integrating counseling, coaching, and energy work into a holistic practice. With over 30 years of experience in the mental health and wellness fields, I am ready to guide you along your path to mental, emotional, and physical and spiritual well-being.
Education: I graduated with a Masters Degree in Counseling from the University of Phoenix in 1999. As a Licensed Professional Counselor I have worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, providing group and individual therapy. In 2014 I shifted my approach to a Positive Psychology and Wellness Model, after realizing the limitations of a symptom and illness based approaches used in most mental health facilities. Since that time I have expanded my training and practice drawing from several disciplines such as Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Positive Psychology, Wellness Coaching and Recovery Coaching.
Certifications: I hold several certifications, showcasing my commitment to providing a broad spectrum of services to my clients. These include being a Certified Progressive Recovery Coach (2015), Level II certified Gottman Method Couples Counselor (2017), Certified Prepare/Enrich Premarital Coach (2018), and a Certified Heroic Coach (2019-2024).
Change Theory - As I worked with various populations, I formulated a 4-Step Model of Change as a framework for describing the therapeutic process, based on the work of numerous Change Theorists. Over the years I have explored a wide range of ideas and models in structuring my clinical work from the feedback from clients about what really works. Clients found it helpful to know where they were in the change process, and I tailored the sessions to where they were and the best tools to use at that time. That is how I developed the ARIA model.
Wellness Focus: As part of my dedication to holistic health, I practice and teach tai chi, qigong, and mindfulness. I earned the Black Belt Certification as a Tai Chi and Qigong Instructor in 2020. In 2023-24, I obtained the Usui/Holy Fire® Reiki Master Practitioner certification, to provide Reiki sessions as well. I am also a Heroic Ambassador for the Heroic Public Benefit Corporation, part of a transformative social training platform committed to enabling 51% of humanity to thrive by 2051.
