Daniel has been incredible. He helped me through an immensely challenging moment in my life. More importantly he helped me to discover the beauty, humor, meaningfulness, meaninglessness in life that is present even in extremely hard situations. We are working on implementing those things into day to day life even when there is not a crisis. I’m grateful to Daniel and feel like a better person for having worked with him.
