Approaches for Online Care and Practical Support
Danielle commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy, and also uses Motivational Interviewing when appropriate.

Trauma-Focused Therapy offers structured ways to process traumatic experiences and build emotional regulation and safety after difficult events. Motivational Interviewing supports people who are unsure about change by exploring personal values and enhancing motivation to pursue healthier choices.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Danielle works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and convenience for those managing work, family, or health demands.
