About Daniel C Walker

I am licensed in Texas with 34 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with coping with addictions, relationship issues, coping with grief, coping with loss, motivation, self esteem, & confidence. I also have experience working with depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. I retired from the Air Force in 1988, and began working in community mental health until 1999, when I started private practice, specializing in severe mental illness for individuals with developmental disorders. I spent a good part of my military career working with individuals with chemical dependency issues. In the past twenty two years, I have experienced significant medical issues; open heart surgery, with ongoing vascular issues, and a two time cancer survivor, with Kidney cancer, and recurring Kidney cancer. I have been cancer free for ten years, but live with that reality. I retired from my private practice over a year ago, but still want to help others, especially those who have issues similar to mine.

“👍”

“If you are lucky, you can get Daniel C. Walker. The wealth of life experience and wisdom Mr. Walker provides is second to none. It’s like night and day compared to less experienced therapists I’ve used in the past. Kind, down to earth and golden. Relational based conversations that move to solutions and steps to freedom.”

“Well experienced and gives great and honest feedback!”

“Mr. Walker has been an immense blessing to my mental health. I’ve been seeing him a few months now weekly and we have conquered some great mountains. I have pretty high anxiety and depression and Mr. Walker has really helped me sort my feelings and the way I think about things in life. I would highly recommend him!”

“Dan has a depth of knowledge and experience that is unlikely to be matched by most therapists. He is kind and nonjudgmental, and can find humor in situations when appropriate. I appreciate his helpful insights. He seems genuinely interested and concerned about me. <br /> <br /> He always signs on early for appointments and is very good about checking in by text between appointments. He has recommended some very helpful reading material. <br /> <br /> Overall, I can highly recommend him as a therapist. I view his age and experience as a real plus.”

“Excellent council and knowledgeable about all models of therapy. Strong communication skills and ability to understand my main concerns and goals”
