My approach to therapy involves creating a nonjudgmental and supportive space, and to serve as an empathetic catalyst to help my clients create and reach their personal goals. My practice is rooted in a person-centered, strengths-based perspective, acknowledging systems of oppression and their affects on individuals and families, and drawing on cognitive-behavioral and trauma-informed concepts.

Are you a young adult woman experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem issues, and even trauma? Self-discovery and creating/finding identity are goals I work best with. In my most recent job, I have found that domestic violence survivors and women who experience issues specific to being a woman have piqued my interest. As a therapist, the most rewarding thing is to guide women toward embracing themselves for who they are, heal past wounds, and empower them to live fully and authentically. I believe I have been given a purpose in this world to serve others, and that's what I was created to do.

I enjoy working with clients who may be struggling with issues such as depression, anxiety, emotional management, poor self-esteem, experiencing grief and loss; who are motivated and open to change and doing homework, and who desire to be a healthier version of themselves.

Navigating life's constant challenges can be overwhelming - after all, we were never given a playbook for these things. We were never taught a step by step guide for how to manage all of the stressors our world throws at us. Yet, we often expect ourselves to have life figured out, and that just isn't fair. I am passionate about helping my clients learn the tools to navigate the most confusing, difficult, and possibly traumatic times of their life and I believe everyone deserves to feel as though they are the expert in their own mental health journey.

Hi, I’m Danya. I believe that everyone has the potential to transform their life. If there is something about your life that you wish to change, I will meet you with respect, humility, and clinical expertise.

If you appreciate candid and compassionate communication, we might be a good match. Whatever you are dealing with, I’m here to listen and support. As your counselor, I'll work to provide a nonjudgmental space to safely explore your emotions, thoughts, identities, and experiences together.

I recognize that I cannot know a person better than they know themselves, so it is my responsibility to empathize and understand the issues they bring in within the scope of their experiences. I strive to work from a multicultural and anti-oppressive frame of practice rooted in person-centered theory, which to me means understanding the intersecting identities that clients hold and how the systems surrounding them impact their distress and their access to opportunities and resources.

Anxious perfectionists go through perpetual guilt, shame, and self-punishment. No matter how hard you try, you're always falling short. It's exhausting, but you don't really know how to relax and probably don't sleep so well. Maybe you're first-generation, or the sibling who had to keep it together, or a grown-up "gifted and talented" kid. Anxious perfectionism may also show up as body tension, severe procrastination and indecision, and difficulty with boundaries and people-pleasing. Perfectionists don't do things perfectly—they feel like they ALWAYS have to do better. You may not even be sure if you can call yourself a good person.

One of my favorite things about my work is hearing each of my clients' unique stories and collaborating with them to create a customized treatment plan that addresses their priorities. One-size-fits all cannot apply to therapy, because no two stories are the same. This is why using evidence-based approaches that allow for the depth of each person's situation is so important to emotional healing.

Feminist Therapists
How does feminist therapy work?
Feminist therapy sessions are not only personal but often cultural or political in nature, as the approach is based on the belief that people are affected by, and often struggle with, cultural and societal norms and biases, and need to move beyond those external pressures or stressors to tap their own confidence and engage more fully in their own identity. Sessions may therefore include discussions of sexism, diversity, and gender issues and talk of steps toward greater empowerment for patients who believe they have been silenced and seek to raise their voices.
What are examples of feminist therapy techniques?
Along with traditional talk therapy and analysis, a feminist therapist may employ techniques such as role-playing and assertiveness training to help clients build their self-esteem so that they feel they can act freely, and not based on cultural expectations or gender roles dictated by others. A feminist therapist may also engage in bibliotherapy, offering suggested readings on gender identity or social power inequities as they work toward viewing mental-health concerns through a broad cultural lens before focusing on how they affect the individual. Somatic therapy techniques, with an emphasis on body awareness, self-compassion, and mindfulness practices are also often part of feminist therapist practice.
How long does feminist therapy last?
As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for feminist therapy; people who believe that they are making progress typically continue until they feel they’ve addressed the issues that had been holding them back. It may take some time to become comfortable discussing personal issues, but once a client feels they can do so, they could expect therapy to last for a number of months, typically including at least 12 sessions.
Does feminist therapy work?
As a relatively recent therapeutic technique, there is not yet a body of evidence proving the efficacy of feminist therapy. However, the approach is based on proven core principles of talk therapy, with a particular emphasis on developing a therapeutic relationship based on equality and authentic connection between therapist and client and discovering and building on clients’ personal strengths to help them gain a greater sense of personal power and agency.
