Motivational interviewing helps people find reasons and energy to change when they feel stuck. She brings six years of clinical experience as an LPC in Virginia to her work. Danielle aims to create a respectful, straightforward space where people are treated as partners in planning goals and practice.
Her style is collaborative and direct, with a focus on building small, useful changes that add up over time. People seeking support are invited to consider what matters most to them and to start with one practical step toward change. Danielle helps translate concerns into doable plans and skills that fit everyday life.
Approach-driven online therapy and practical skills
Danielle commonly uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping people feel understood so they can explore choices at their own pace. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches specific strategies to change unhelpful patterns.She also draws on solution-focused and motivational techniques to set short-term goals and build momentum. These approaches help when someone wants concrete changes like better communication, reduced anxiety, or clearer career direction. Finding the right mix is collaborative - the therapist and client decide together what feels most helpful based on goals and preferences.
Confirm the available session options before booking so you know how meetings will take place. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people attend from a quieter or more comfortable location. Danielle works with clients to match approach and scheduling to everyday life and practical needs.
