My Approach: I see you and I want to challenge you.

Yes…challenge. We grow outside of our comfort zones. If you need a lil nudge or invitation beyond the nod, smile and validation approach (though I can do that too), I got you. I want to see you, hear you, and understand you.

And…as hard as this may be right now, I also want to challenge you to see your own gifts, truly like who you are, find peace and joy in your relationships, and live a life of empowered resiliency and abundance, free from the history and events that hold you back.

I’m likely not your first therapist and I may even work alongside your current therapist to do some EMDR or depth work for trauma healing. I tend to be the therapist you need in this moment because another layer of the onion is painful and interrupting your life; and, you’re ready to dive in deeper and let that madness go.

Testimonials

  • “Intuition can’t be taught and you have it by the buckets...

    When I met you, I’d been in therapy for the majority of my life and I can honestly say I’d never trusted a single therapist. You know when to push, when to pull, and when to just hold space. Aside from your calming presence, your insights are raw and honest. It’s like the perfect balance of softness and power.”

    Suzanne

  • “She kept my adolescent self in line through sarcasm, perspective, insightful outlooks, and occasional yet rare wake up calls.

    It’s easy to tell someone to look on the bright side, but it’s another to tell an individual (nonetheless a teenage girl) to stop the pity party. If I wanted a better life, Danielle taught me to create the life that I deserved. Five years later, I finally did.”

    Kari

  • “After working through my addiction and the traumas that contributed to it with you, I gained trust, respect, and confidence in you and your abilities as a therapist.

    As the years have gone by, you’ve proven that you are able to tackle anything - from relationships, to career changes, to financial stress. Literally every life milestone, you’ve been able to both support me through and help me find the strength within to navigate and align my life with my truest self.”

    Jess

  • "I spent so long feeling unseen or misunderstood and with your help, I finally feel like the world sees me for me.

    You’ve helped me to take off the masks, peel off the layers, and live each day a little more me. I know that you are there to save me from the quicksand of stagnation.”

    Thank you!

    Eric

  • "You promote an active involvement instead of the passive arm chair therapy approach.

    Danielle provides a nurturing, yet no-nonsense environment that fosters organic growth by challenging hard worn negative patterns.”
