About Danielle

Danielle Bonner is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who brings 23 years of therapeutic experience to her practice in North Carolina.

Background and approach

She integrates cognitive behavioral techniques with acceptance-based and client-centered methods to help people address anxiety, depression, grief, and stress, while also supporting clients facing trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, and compassion fatigue.

Her clinical background includes work as an outpatient therapist, DBT facilitator, and life coach, giving her a broad toolkit for practical symptom management and skill building. Her style is grounded, compassionate, and interactive, and she adapts conversations and treatment plans to each person’s situation.

Danielle has supported individuals coping with bipolar disorder, ADHD, substance-related concerns, and histories of intimate partner violence or child abuse and neglect, and she also works with issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, and communication problems.

She holds LICSW and LISW-CP credentials and applies a mix of CBT, ACT, DBT, EFT, and client-centered techniques to help clients clarify goals and develop lasting strategies for change.

Integrating evidence-based approaches for online care

Danielle often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients recognize and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday problems. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support people in clarifying their values and learning ways to accept difficult emotions while taking meaningful action. Both approaches are presented in practical, skills-based ways that translate well to remote sessions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to explore goals, preferences, and life circumstances and will adapt methods over time so treatment aligns with what the client finds most helpful and effective.

Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to continue therapy when travel, work, or caregiving responsibilities make in-person visits difficult, and they support ongoing skills practice between sessions.
