Hi there, I am Danica, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 17 years of experience in the mental health and addiction field. My approach is warm, compassionate and supportive in a comfortable nonjudgmental environment. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma, military, depression, addiction, bipolar and others. I believe it is important to treat everyone with respect, dignity and compassion. Your treatment will be individualized to meet your personal and specific needs. I will meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome what is keeping you stuck where you are. Let’s work together!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During our first session we will complete an intake, where I gather your history. Then we will work together to create your individualized plan for your course of treatment. From there your therapy sessions will be tailored to your specific needs. We will work together collaboratively to help you reach your goals.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I use various treatment approaches based upon the client’s needs. I use the following treatment approaches: CBT, DBT, Reality, Motivational Interviewing, Strength-Based, Client-Centered and Solution-Focused.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
One of my biggest strengths is being open minded about those difficult topics that can be hard to talk about. I view clients with unconditional positive regard and offer empathy and understanding.
