Dr. Danielle Thompson, LPC
About me
Hello, I’m Danielle, also known as Dr. Dani, and I’m passionate about helping people find healing, balance, and purpose in their lives. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds, including Deaf, Hard of Hearing, DeafBlind clients, refugees, educators, and young adults navigating major life transitions. I am bi-lingual in English and American Sign Language.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in empathy. I believe therapy should be a safe and inclusive space where you feel heard and understood without judgment. I integrate evidence based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and strength-based counseling to meet your unique needs.
I have a deep understanding of how culture, identity, and communication shape mental health. Whether you’re coping with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or identity-related challenges, I work with you to uncover your resilience, build coping tools, and restore a sense of hope and self-trust.
If you’re ready to begin your healing journey, I’d be honored to walk alongside you , at your pace, in your language, and on your terms.
