Danielle has been a therapist as an LPC since 2011. She graduated Mount Mary College in Milwaukee with an MS in Art Therapy with a Concentration in Community Counseling. She has over 10 years of experience. She has worked with a wide array of individuals with various mental health diagnoses. She specializes in stress/anxiety, LGBTQ related concerns, depression, neurodivergence, ADHD, and trauma. Her substance abuse specialization helps people with behavior and addiction issues.
Danielle uses a trauma informed approach and relies on evidence-based treatment. She has specialized training in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), and motivational interviewing (MI). Danielle's style is person centered, which leaves you in control of your sessions. She will encourage you to set your own treatment goals and will help guide you to them if you're unsure.
Danielle became a Usui Reiki Master in 2021. Besides providing psychotherapy Danielle is a professional tarot reader and psychic medium. Combining Reiki and metaphysical training with traditional therapy has led to a more integrative and holistic treatment experience for clients who request these alternative approaches along with the evidence-based skills.
