I am Danelle King, MSW, LCSW. With 29 years experience I am dedicated to using my natural gifts of nurturing and support to provide therapy. I emphasize the importance of honesty and offer non-judgmental input. I create a safe space for my clients to open up without fear of criticism, and I'm straightforward in my approach, offering genuine feedback and guidance that is personalized to your unique circumstance. I am prepared to address problematic behaviors, traumatic events, and specific mental health diagnoses.
I employ a variety of modalities in my client centered approach, including: EMDR, CBT, and DBT. You can expect an accountability partner who will support and collaborate with you to determine the barriers you want to overcome. Together we will implement personalized strategizes to crush your goals one by one. At each session we will review and celebrate your progress.
As a therapist, my strengths lie in my ability to be supportive, nonjudgmental, and nurturing while maintaining a strength-based, client-focused, and client-centered approach. I provide a safe space where clients can feel secure, knowing that they are the most important person in the room. Even as I foster this environment of care and understanding, I also hold clients accountable, helping them stay on track toward achieving their goals. This balance allows me to empower clients to grow and make meaningful progress in their lives.
Danelle King offers therapy covered by Managed Health Services (Managed Medicaid), Medicaid - Managed Health Services and UnitedHealthcare/Optum - Medicaid in Indiana.
In my therapy practice, I incorporate parenting techniques and insights to support clients dealing with family dynamics and child-rearing challenges. As a parent to nine children, I bring a wealth of personal experience to the table, particularly in areas such as foster care, adoption, attachment issues, and behavior management. This background allows me to offer practical, empathetic guidance and strategies that resonate deeply with parents and families navigating similar challenges.
I have recently integrated Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) into my therapy practice. This innovative approach has allowed me to better address trauma and anxiety in my clients by facilitating the processing of distressing memories and reducing their lingering effects. Incorporating EMDR has not only enhanced the efficacy of my treatment plans but also provided my clients with a powerful tool for healing and personal growth.
I have received training and integrate Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), a structured, evidence-based approach designed to help clients process and overcome the impact of traumatic experiences. I am particularly sensitive to the unique histories of each client, ensuring that their trauma is acknowledged and respected throughout the therapeutic process. I often utilize journaling as a powerful tool, enabling clients to express and reflect on their emotions and thoughts as they work through their trauma. This approach not only helps in reducing trauma-related symptoms but also empowers clients to regain control over their lives.
In my practice, I incorporate family therapy by creating a safe and supportive environment where every member feels heard and respected. My natural gifts of support and non-judgment allow clients to feel secure in expressing their concerns and emotions. Drawing from my personal experience with family dynamics, I’m able to deeply understand the complexities of familial relationships and integrate that insight into my therapeutic approach, guiding families toward healthier interactions and stronger connections.
