Hello, my name is Danielle. I am licensed in New York, Florida, and Michigan with over 25 years of experience working as a psychotherapist and life coach with individuals of all ages. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting stress, and career challenges. I have also helped many people who have experienced family and generational trauma as well as grief and loss. My counseling style is warm, reflective, and encouraging. I believe in treating everyone with respect, compassion, and openness. I believe everyone is doing the best they can. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, rational-emotive, dialectical behavior therapy with a blend of mindfulness, energy psychology, and psycho-education. I will tailor our time together and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to step forward and seek help for a more fulfilling and happier life. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I love to know what prompted therapy right now, in this very moment in your life. I also find it helpful for both of us to learn exactly what would be different in your life if all was well and going exactly as you want it to go. How would you move in your life? How would you show up in your relationships with others? with yourself? I find this can be very helpful as we develop a map for the next sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Some of my biggest strengths are really listening and tuning into the emotions and the emotional energy. I do not want my clients to relive trauma so I work in a way that we do not stay in the "story" for too long, just long enough to gather what is needed to do the healing work.
