About Damon
Damon Bryan is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with more than 21 years of experience. He helps people facing depression, anxiety, relationship and family conflict, trauma, and substance use concerns. He also supports people dealing with stress, grief, addiction, parenting strain, and identity-related issues such as LGBT concerns.

He aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about thoughts and feelings. Sessions focus on clear goals that the client and therapist set together. Damon uses a collaborative style and emphasizes a strong working relationship as the foundation for change.
His clinical work draws on several approaches. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thinking and behavior patterns, Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotional regulation skills, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for trauma-related symptoms, the Gottman Method for relationship work, and Mindfulness Therapy to build present-moment awareness. He adapts methods to each person’s needs rather than following a single technique.

How selected approaches translate to online work
CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online sessions can focus on practical exercises, homework, and problem-solving that fit into daily life. DBT teaches emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills through repeated practice and skills coaching in session. These skills can be introduced and practiced in remote sessions and reinforced between meetings. EMDR focuses on processing distressing memories to reduce their emotional impact; in therapy it uses structured phases to safely address trauma symptoms.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences to determine which methods fit best. If one approach isn’t working, they can adjust the plan together so therapy stays practical and responsive to needs.
The profile does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online therapy helpful because it can fit into a workday, avoid travel time, or make it easier to attend consistently. Sessions can be used to practice skills, review progress, and plan next steps without promising a specific format or outcome.
