No one gets through life without facing some challenges and setbacks. At some point or other, we all experience situations that are difficult and often cause us to question our abilities and our worth. Left unresolved, these experiences can compromise our ability to make wise decisions, build healthy relationships, and meet our full potential.

The bottom line is…you already have what it takes to be the best version of yourself. Sometimes we just need a little support and guidance to access all of that promise within, which is why I offer a warm and affirming space where we can cultivate the change you are seeking. Together, we will work to contextualize your current and past experiences with compassion and curiosity.

I utilize trauma-informed, culturally sensitive care combined with a variety of therapies as appropriate to specific client goals and needs. With a deep appreciation for the uniqueness of each client and their lived experiences, I foster a collaborative and inclusive therapeutic environment.

Welcome. I’m Danielle :)

As a therapist, I work hard to make therapy a place where we can help you find meaning, purpose, agency, healing, and joy. Therapy with me is collaborative, nonjudgmental, and trauma-informed.

I have experience helping people with anxiety, depression, boundaries, communication, assertiveness, grief and loss, disordered eating/eating disorders, relationship problems, divorce, family conflict, coercive control, and more.

Before I was a therapist, I worked in several high-intensity environments including victim services, crisis intervention, and front line/emergency response.

I offer services in-person and virtually. If you are interested in working with me but you don’t see a time that works with your schedule, please reach out :)

If you’d prefer to chat before booking something, I offer free 15-minute phone consultations. These calls allow you to get a sense of what it might be like to work with me, and they give me a chance to learn a little bit about you and your hopes for therapy.
