I have a flair for helping people effect positive change in their lives. My offices are comfortable safe spaces to talk about difficult things and make tough decisions. The road to emotional wellness can be painful and challenging, so I try very hard to be encouraging and supportive while change is occurring. Hurt, pain and anger do not define who we are; it opens our emotional pathways to inform us of the need and time for change. Depression is usually an indication of the depth of personal disruption, so when it’s appropriate, I offer advice to validate feelings, encourage healing and to dismantle irrational thinking.

Hello! My name is Danielle Diegue and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York. I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Albany and received my master's degree from John Jay College of Criminal Justice. I've been working in mental health since 2017 and have had the privilege of working with a wide variety of clients from all walks of life. I have experience conducting individual, couples, and group therapy. I have worked with clients that struggled with diagnosis that ranged from anxiety/depression to schizophrenia to substance use disorders. I have also worked with clients who have struggled with stress management, self-esteem, and family/work issues. I like to take a client-center approach to therapy and I utilize different techniques including, but not limited to, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and goal setting. Ultimately my goal is to create a safe and empathic space for clients to share and work through their concerns.

Periodically life presents stress, turmoil and loss that can block us from living fully and freely. Also, life challenges can prompt us to give away our personal power. However, Challenging times can engender opportunities for creative solutions and change. My counseling method is focused on providing support, thoughtful exploration, and invitation to own one's story and the wisdom therein. Through supportive counseling you will be provided an opportunity to engage in a process of re-imagining the trajectory of your life and develop a path to a more fulfilling future.
