Danielle Dattilo
Im a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida, practicing post Masters since 2011. I have been in the field of social services since 1999. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals and families across a variety of settings. My experience spans working with children, families, trauma, family dynamics, parenting, depression, anxiety, trauma, and crisis intervention. My typical approach is direct and solution-focused, however overall, I tend to be eclectic as one size does not fit all. I believe that every individual has the capacity for growth and healing, and sometimes just needs the right support to uncover their path forward. Life’s stressors and feeling overwhelmed can cloud our perspective—but with guidance in a safe, non-judgmental space, clarity and progress become possible.
First session
Our first session will be getting to know one another. We will explore your needs and both of our expectations for our therapeutic alliance. You will help me understand what your goals are during this time in which we work together.
Strengths
I have the ability to listen and utilize an eclectic, non-judgmental approach. I do not have a one size fits all approach. I've worked in a variety of settings and can see things through multiple lenses. My hope is I can help others do the same to come up with solutions
Ideal clients
My ideal client will be open minded with an understanding of a sense of humor and direct approach. I am originally from NY, I can come off as direct but have an understanding in a non-judgmental and supportive approach. I value practicing with Integrity in mind as this is how I thrive in everyday life.
Treatment methods
Solution-Focused Brief Treatment
My approach is direct and solution-focused. I believe that every individual has the capacity for growth and healing, and sometimes just needs the right support to uncover their path forward.
Psychoeducation
Sometimes when dealing with life stressors and difficulties, having the education related to that difficulty is what helps move us forward
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, goal-oriented approach that focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
Eclectic
I use an eclectic therapy approach, meaning I draw from different methods—like CBT, solution-focused, and trauma-informed techniques—to meet each client’s unique needs. This flexibility allows me to tailor sessions in a way that’s practical, supportive, and effective for you.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I often incorporate mindfulness into sessions to help clients slow down and reconnect with the present moment. When we’re feeling overwhelmed or stuck, mindfulness can create space for clarity and calm, making it easier to manage stress, anxiety, and emotional challenges.
