Her background includes supporting those facing family-of-origin struggles, commitment concerns, and substance use issues. Sessions are aimed at building practical skills and clearer thinking. Danielle uses client-centered listening to understand each person’s experience and then introduces tools from CBT, ACT, or DBT as needed.

Online support

How relationship work and skills translate to online therapy

Danielle commonly uses the Gottman Method to look at how people communicate and connect, helping them identify interaction patterns and practice healthier ways of relating. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and focus on values-based actions to move forward.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Danielle will listen to current struggles and goals, then suggest tools and exercises that fit each person’s situation. That collaboration means the plan can change as progress is made or priorities shift.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow for a close, conversational experience, phone sessions can work when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat is useful for brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflections and reminders. These options help fit sessions around work, family, or other daily demands while keeping the focus on concrete skills and better communication.
