Danielle utilizes a client-centered, strengths-based approach that allows her clients to feel empowered to build the skills they need to improve their quality of life. She provides a trauma-informed, nurturing, nonjudgmental environment and incorporates humor and therapeutic play into her practice, which allows her to develop relationships with clients who have historically struggled to build healthy and safe attachments to providers and caregivers.

Hello, and welcome. You've taken the hardest step already in looking for help! I am a Texas and Massachusetts based Licensed Professional Counselor. I am a Marriage and Family therapist and Individual therapist. I work best with individuals AND couples, whether you're in a committed relationship, whether it is a spouse, or partner, or friend, or another human being! If you need help communicating, or interacting, in a healthier, more assertive way with another person, I would love to work with you. Family of origin, and childhood wounds is an area we can explore, together. You don't have to do this alone anymore. Everything relates back to relationship, whether it's to ourselves, or another person! I also specialize in helping people with anxiety, depression, and related issues. If you are wanting to just talk, and process things, or learn effective tools, skills, to change how you're functioning, you've come to the right place.

I offer flexible scheduling for those who need it - we can meet weekly, bi-weekly, or 'grab & go' style where you pick up an appointment as needed. I practice 'relational, client-centered' therapy where you are the leader in the work we do together. I value the client-therapist relationship & show up as a whole person therapist - if I cannot provide competent care & support for your therapeutic needs, I will work with you to find you the therapist you deserve. I primarily see individuals experiencing life overwhelm, chronic illness, perinatal or postpartum concerns, identity exploration, & those in (or interested in) the medical, human services, or first responder fields.

Are you feeling pressure to perform in the classroom, on the field/court/rink, in the studio/on stage, or any other extracurricular? Are you struggling to figure out what direction to go in academically or professionally? Are you feeling tied down from your past or worried about the impending future? Are you dealing with current, here-and-now distress?
