I"m a LCSW who helps individuals, couples, and families create relationships that feel safe, steady, and connected. My approach is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and practical. I believe people don't need perfection - They need clarity, effective tools, and a therapist who shows up with warmth and a grounded presence. I help clients understand what's happening in their nervous system, why certain patterns keep repeating, and how to shift those patterns in ways that feel sustainable. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship conflict, being emotionally overwhelmed, or developmental trauma, I offer a calm , structured space where you can slow down, make sense of your experience, and build new ways of relating to yourself and others. My work integrates solutions grounded in trauma informed practices, attachment theory and systems work. I am trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral (TF-CBT) therapy as well as Structured Psychotherapy for Adolescents Responding to Chronic Stress (SPARCS). But more importantly, I tailor therapy to the person in front of me. You won't get jargon or judgement. You will get clear guidance, steady support, and strategies you can use in real life... with your partner, your kids, your coworkers and yourself. Clients often share they appreciate my calm presence and straightforward style. I am not here to talk at you; I am here to walk with you. I bring both clinical expertise and lived experience of navigating a blended family, parenting neurodiverse children, and building healthy communication in high stress environments. I understand what it feels like to want change but feel stuck in old cycles. If you are looking for a therapist who is warm, direct, and committed to helping you grow, I would be honored to work with you. Together we will build clarity, connection and spark change - one step at a time.

Welcome! I'm Danielle. Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. Try as we might, sometimes happiness and contentment always seem just out of reach. Depression, anxiety and stress can make getting out of bed in the morning a daunting task. Troubles in your relationship or conflict in the family can make you feel helpless or overwhelmed. Creating a daily routine using strategies that ground you and support moving forward in areas where you feel stuck. Improving your outlook on life to see past the stressful events that feel overwhelming. Talking through challenges and learning different ways to look at something in order to make progress, even when feeling depressed and anxious. As a therapist, it is my goal for clients to feel empowered and supported as we navigate through your journey to healing and wellness. I’m passionate about approaching therapy in a client centered way, and want each session to take you exactly where you need in that moment. My therapy approach is warm and accepting, focusing on establishing overall wellness. Therapy can seem daunting, we will go at a pace that is comfortable for you and discuss the topics you want. What are the tension points? Let's talk about those and develop a daily routine that grounds you and allows you to feel more in control of your life. I am here to listen and encourage you as you talk to support your healing and recovery.

I help people who feel overwhelmed by anger, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, shame, grief, or difficult seasons of life. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck in patterns they do not like: saying things they regret, replaying conversations, avoiding people, feeling like they are failing, or carrying pain that they have tried hard to keep hidden. Before opening my private practice, I founded Coyote Hill and spent more than 33 years working with foster children, families, and people in crisis. That experience shaped the way I work now: calm, practical, honest, and compassionate. I do not believe therapy should feel mysterious or judgmental. My goal is to help you understand what is happening, why it keeps happening, and what you can begin doing differently. One line that has stayed with me is, “We are all just walking each other home.” To me, that is part of what therapy can be: a steady place where you do not have to carry everything alone, and where we move toward clarity, healing, and the next right step. We cannot change the past, but we can work on how you respond in the present and how you move forward with more steadiness, self-respect, and hope.

My passion is to help individuals explore and begin to understand their mental health by helping them "connect the dots" of their lives. My mission is to help clients unravel the complexities of the human mind. I recognized the importance of delving into the past to illuminate the present and understand the “whys” behind the tangled web of thoughts and actions that shape our daily experiences. I am a very laid back therapist who provides a safe and nurturing space to explore your inner self. Please join me on this journey, where together, we can uncover the hidden truths, “connect the dots,” and have a deeper understanding of life.

Life Transitions
I help teenagers and adults work through life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, or other mental health challenges that may be affecting their relationships and goals. I have been in the mental health field for more than a decade, and have been a licensed counselor since 2021. I am passionate about working with people to achieve breakthroughs in their lives, improve their understanding of what they need and want, and improve boundaries with those around them. Asking for help can push us outside our comfort zone, but that’s often where real growth begins. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore, heal, and grow. You don’t have to do this alone. (También hablo español.)
