Sharing your individual difficulties, fears, desires, and dreams can be a challenging experience. Danielle (she/her/hers) acknowledges this and, therefore, focuses on building a warm and safe environment where clients can truly open themselves up for self-discovery and introspection. She believes in building a strong therapist-client relationship and uses a collaborative approach to assist clients in setting and reaching goals. Danielle understands that frequently we have the tools inside of us to heal our struggles and she seeks to help you uncover those tools in therapeutic work. As a queer black woman, she understands it can be tough to find spaces to authentically express your true feelings, as well as get validation and support. Danielle has experience holding space and processing the challenges that can arise from holding multiple marginalized identities. She hopes to support clients on their journeys of personal growth.
Danielle primarily takes on a psychodynamic approach, connecting with clients and getting to know them as a whole person. With this perspective, she typically explores deep-rooted patterns for clients to increase their self-understanding. Her therapeutic framework also incorporates cognitive-behavioral and relational therapy modalities to meet clients where they are at and support them with their individual needs. Danielle also emphasizes the client’s expertise on their own life to help them achieve goals, develop self awareness, and facilitate growth. Danielle does not see therapy as one size fits all and her goal is to understand your unique needs so that therapy can be tailored to you.
Danielle is interested in helping clients cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, LGBTQ+ issues, racial identity issues, self-esteem, body image, and non-monogamy. She has a strong interest in BIPOC mental health and providing affirmative care for those who have not historically had a safe space within the mental health field. Her past experience consists of working with individuals who come from diverse cultural, ethnic, racial, economic, gender identities.
Danielle self-identifies as a cisgender, queer, Black, spiritual woman.
