About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both Pennsylvania and Maine and have been working with clients struggling with mental health issues for over 18 years! I have worked with many different populations over the years and specialize in treating individuals with depression, anxiety, stress issues, aging issues, and other life changes! I also have worked as a hospice social worker and have run grief and loss, support groups!

My counseling style is compassionate and warm, and I believe in treating everyone with respect! I also focus more on a collaborative style which allows you to be in control of the pace and focus of your sessions, while also offering feedback and alternative ways of thinking and problem-solving. I tend to use several approaches while working with individuals, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and problem-solving approaches. I believe that every individual can make changes and their lives and I aim to empower them to meet those goals!

Therapy can be a big step for individuals and change can be scary, but the results are very rewarding!

I offer video, phone, and live chat as options for our sessions and I can be flexible to meet the hours that you need for your busy schedule so that sessions do not have to be an added stressor to your life.

I look forward to working with you and helping you to live the life that you deserve and that you desire!

I thought I was ready. However I am not. I am extremely thankful for the communications we did have. Just being honest was a big thing. If I come back I will come back to her.

I only had one session to date with Danielle but her questions were appropriate and she listened to my concerns with care, respect and professionalism yet was down to earth.

So far Danielle has been amazing. Talking me through everything I’m going through. She isn’t pressuring me one way or another.
