I am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) which is a highly effective method for treating trauma, anxiety, phobias, mood disorders, and more.
I am skilled at helping people reduce anxiety and alleviate the impact that trauma has had in their lives. I enjoy supporting people through relationship struggles or big changes in life. I want to help you feel like you are in control of your emotions and your reactions, instead of feeling like they are controlling you. I pride myself on being highly empathetic and providing support/guidance in a non-judgmental way. I am able to connect with people easily to help you feel comfortable enough to look within. It's within this safe therapeutic relationship that authentic change can occur.

I believe a person is not defined by a diagnosis, behavior, interpersonal conflict, or psychological trauma. However, I understand the influence they can have on our lives. As Dr. Gabor Mate states, "What we call the personality is often a jumble of genuine traits and adopted coping styles that do not reflect our true self at all but the loss of it." Through compassionate inquiry, I strive to assist individuals in understanding how our emotional well-being and social connectivity are intimately intertwined with addictions, health, and disease.

I treat depression, anxiety, trauma, self-harm/suicidal thoughts and relationship concerns.
It takes a tremendous amount of courage to reach out for help. Many of us have learned that asking for help isn't safe yet reality tells us that genuine connection to others is as important as the oxygen you breathe. The truth is that you don't have to work through your painful losses, fears or heartaches alone. Everything that you experience has its reasons for existing and the good news is that your mind has a limitless capacity to learn, grow and heal. You deserve to make sense of your challenges even if the process is difficult. I can help guide you on your path to healing and understanding.

Mary Oliver says, "Whoever you are, no matter how lonely, the world offers itself to your imagination, calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting - over and over announcing your place in the family of things." I believe your life is inherently valuable. Your story has meaning. No matter where you're at or what you've experienced, hope still beckons.

My hope as a licensed therapist is to meet with those in the midst of pain and uncertainty as they pursue growth and a greater sense of connection and authenticity.

I have experience working with attachment, trauma, sexual identity, grief, life transitions, self-acceptance, and communication dissonance, martial issues including infidelity, sexual issues, depression, and anxiety.
From our beginning we are wired to seek and have connection with others. However we can become stuck with those we hold closest. This "stuckness" can present itself in the form of communication breakdowns, anxiety, depression as well as many other feelings that leave us feeling uncomfortable in our own lives. I provide a non judgmental space for you to explore how you came to be in this place and what needs to be done to move past it in order to live your most fulfilled life. I am a Licensed Associate Marriage and Family Therapist who cares deeply about working with my client’s to find the happiness and wholeness they seek.

What would you be doing with your life if anxiety and worry didn't interfere? What stressful thing is happening right now that feels like it's beyond your ability to cope? Have you experienced a trauma that replays in your mind and brings up feelings of shame, hurt or anger every time you think of it? I help people get unstuck from the past and begin building the kind of life they truly want to live. You will experience greater confidence and peace as you develop practical coping tools that reinforce resilience, learn the art of self-compassion, and begin making decisions based on what is right for your life, not someone else's.

Welcome! I'm Danielle. Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. Try as we might, sometimes happiness and contentment always seem just out of reach. Depression, anxiety and stress can make getting out of bed in the morning a daunting task. Troubles in your relationship or conflict in the family can make you feel helpless or overwhelmed. Creating a daily routine using strategies that ground you and support moving forward in areas where you feel stuck.
