Danielle's main passion is treating trauma of varying forms. She has worked with clients who have experienced racism, discrimination, and prejudice, childhood sexual/physical/emotional abuse and neglect, domestic violence, physical and emotional abuse, being bullied, work violence, natural disaster, and grief and loss. She has treated clients of varying ethnicities and identities dealing with symptoms of depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar, borderline personality disorder, autism, and adjustment disorders. Her approach is a collaborative one and she continuously strives to be culturally aware and believes her clients know themselves the best.
