Northbrook, IL 60062
Dani has a compassionate and client centered style when working with patients. A metaphor of Dani’s style is that she is the coach while the patient is the player on the field; she can tell you what the play looks like, however she cannot do the work when you are out on the field. What she values in her clients is an openness to the therapeutic experience, curiosity and a yearning to know more about themselves and what they find beneficial. While using a touch of humor to build rapport, Dani can help her patients gain new perspectives which will empower them to make changes in their life.

My work aids individual adults, couples, and adolescents. I have practice working with mood disorders, anxiety, social anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, PTSD, postpartum mood disorders, grief, and career counseling. I have received specialized betrayal trauma through APSATS. This work often combines understanding the neuroscience of trauma, uncovering relational patterns and their roots, moving through grief, and reconnecting. Another specific population I see includes women with Autism where we may explore developing deeper connections with others, uncovering impacts of societal norms, and building the confidence to be authentic.

I believe it is important to value ourselves and value our thought process throughout our journey. I pride myself on being a therapist who can listen to my clients and support them in any stage of their healing. My office space is a “judgement free zone” where my clients can feel comfortable and encouraged to thrive in any area. I am a firm believer that therapy allows us to gain an increased sense of self-worth, dignity, and self awareness and by utilizing a non-judgmental, supportive, and empathetic approach. I am passionate about my clients’ success and I strive to promote a positive therapeutic relationship in the process.

I provide a supportive, empathic, and hopeful environment. I encourage my clients to be open-minded and honest while approaching their sensitive personal challenges, guiding them in understanding why past efforts at addressing these challenges may have been ineffective. We (me and the client) then develop alternative goal-directed and client-centered solutions. I recognize that successful therapy requires collaborative goal setting. Your participation in setting goals allows for a more willing exploration of the thoughts, feelings, and experiences that guide both current and past choices. This engenders the type of change that is both true and sustainable. Lasting change rarely happens quickly, but is a process that often begins through gaining perspective on past choices. Such understanding often provides insight and wisdom for future choices, resulting in positive transformations

I act as a facilitator of change for individuals who suffer from depression, anxiety, various traumas, panic, grief/loss, stress, postpartum blues and depression, low self-esteem, and who are going through life transitions and have parenting challenges.

Seeking therapy can be scary, but taking this first step shows your courage in the face of uncertainty. Therapy is an opportunity for us to explore your goals, interests, and experiences.

I have worked with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, neurodiversity/ADHD, relationships, stress, trauma, substance use, OCD, and much more. I also enjoy working with clients involved in kink and ENM dynamics.
