“Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much” -Helen Keller

How I work: I have a passion for this work and I’m not afraid to walk into the “darkness” and depths with you. Every part of you is welcome, including the messy parts! I truly want to see you, hear you and understand you!

I bring a combination of warmth, directness, and laughter to my sessions. I see life in the form of possibilities, outside of the pain. I want the same for you!

My approach: There are a lot of tools in this old toolbox. This is not a cookie cutter approach. If you need a little nudge or invitation beyond the nod, smile, and validation approach, I got you.

Growth always happens outside of our comfort zones and we’ll explore those edges. We’ll weave in advanced approaches like EMDR, Brainspotting, DNMS (pretty awesome), inner child work, neuroscience, parts, ACT/mindfulness, and AIT (somatic coolness) to get to the other side of those protective patterns.

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.”
