About Mitchell
Mitchell Daas is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Minnesota with ten years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and parenting challenges. Mitchell blends practical skills with a straightforward, compassionate approach to help people make meaningful changes.
In sessions he balances acceptance and change. He uses clear tools to manage intense emotions and also helps clients set small goals that add up.
Background and approach
He listens without judgement and works with each person to define what a life worth living means for them. Mitchell draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits. He also uses dialectical behavior strategies to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and effective communication.
Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationship patterns and closeness. Parents often come to him for help with parenting stress, sleep and eating concerns, and struggles that touch family life. He also supports people coping with grief, career transitions, chronic health challenges, and identity-focused concerns like LGBTQ issues.
Sessions are practical and collaborative. Mitchell aims to give tools people can use between meetings while also exploring deeper patterns that keep problems repeating. He encourages steady progress and celebrates small changes along the way.

Therapeutic approaches that translate online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take small steps toward a meaningful life while accepting difficult feelings. It can help when anxiety, depression, or parenting stress makes forward movement hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood. It is practical for sleep, eating, and daily routines that need changing. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which helps when emotions feel overwhelming or communication breaks down.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Mitchell collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying one approach for a while, combining techniques, or shifting direction as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited local options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations for skills practice and emotional work. Phone sessions can be a simpler check-in when bandwidth is limited or when being on camera isn’t ideal. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins, coping plans, and between-session support possible without a full session.
