Danny Shaheen

Perhaps you’re a high achiever who has reached a degree of “conventional” success and realized that it’s not what it’s cracked up to be. You yearn to meaningfully engage with your life and your values, yet you find yourself still chasing the latest promotion or status increase (new house, car, etc.), despite knowing they won’t help you feel whole. Intellectually you understand this, though you feel stuck and unable to change the pattern. Maybe you’re many years into a committed romantic partnership and just now recognizing there have been some ineffective patterns of communication or imbalances. You know what you’ve been doing isn’t working, but it’s gotten you this far, so changing it now feels impossible. You might be the sort of husband/partner/father who intends to subvert gender stereotypes and take on your share of the mental load or household responsibilities, yet you’re having difficulty in practicing your ideals. Maybe you’re in the “sandwich generation;” caretaking for young children, keeping an eye on your parents’ health, all while minding your own complicated life. How to uphold these responsibilities and not lose yourself entirely in the process? If you resonated with any of the above, I’d like to congratulate you on taking the important first step of owning the problem. There are innumerable approaches you could take to try to change these patterns (and infinite self-help materials telling you their way is the best approach). But helping you overcome the overwhelm and discover the best approach for you and your unique situation? That’s where I come in. My name is Danny, and I specialize in working with men and couples on the above problems and beyond. I have over a decade of experience helping my clients get unstuck from their seemingly unbreakable patterns. I am now able to see clients virtually in Minnesota, Rhode Island, Maryland and Washington, DC. If your interest is piqued, I invite you to schedule a free, 15 minute initial consultation. I look forward to meeting you!
