About Daniel S. Fayerberg, MSEd, LMHC-D, CCTP

Daniel Fayerberg, LMHC is a licensed mental health counselor who provides online diagnostic evaluations at Brightline. His approach is evidence-based and deeply individualized, shaped by each child's needs, strengths, culture, and goals, and informed by his experience in private practice and school settings.

Daniel works most often with kids and families navigating ADHD, anxiety, and trauma, as well as many who identify as LGBTQ+. His background includes individual and family therapy, evaluations, crisis support, school collaboration, and caregiver education. Families can expect a compassionate, collaborative space where concerns are taken seriously and where treatment focuses on strategies that work in real life.

What draws Daniel to this work is personal. He understands firsthand how much it matters to identify and address mental health concerns early, and that belief shapes every evaluation he conducts.

What is a diagnostic evaluation provider?

Brightline diagnostic evaluation providers are licensed therapists or psychologists who are qualified to conduct diagnostic evaluations.
