About Daniele

Background and approach

With 18 years of experience and a foundation in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), she helps clients explore patterns of thought and behavior while developing realistic skills for managing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. Her practice emphasizes tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each individual's circumstances and goals.

She also brings experience addressing relationship and family concerns, LGBT-related issues, intimacy and parenting challenges, anger and self-esteem difficulties, and life transitions including career changes and adoption or foster care matters.

Integrating CBT and Mindful Approaches in Online Therapy

Daniele uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and learn practical strategies for managing anxiety, mood, and stress. CBT sessions typically focus on concrete skills and behavioral experiments that can reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy concepts to support values-based action and greater psychological flexibility when facing painful thoughts or difficult life changes.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Daniele collaborates with each person to determine which methods or combination of techniques best match their goals, preferences, and current circumstances, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats can make ongoing work more accessible for people balancing family, work, or geographic limitations, while allowing licensed professionals to provide consistent support and skills-driven treatment over time.
