About Danielle

Danielle Deramo is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She also works with people dealing with eating issues, trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, sleeping problems, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and life changes. Danielle speaks plainly and offers a calm, compassionate presence during hard moments.

Her style is warm and gentle. Danielle treats people with respect and sensitivity. She focuses on each person’s goals and adapts the approach to fit their needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.

Danielle blends several therapeutic methods to support change. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address thinking and behavior patterns, skills from dialectical behavior therapy to manage emotions, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take meaningful action. Attachment-based and client-centered ideas also shape how she builds a trusting working relationship.

Her work has included extensive experience with eating disorders and related challenges. Danielle draws on about 11 years of overall clinical experience and tailors treatment plans around practical steps people can use between sessions.

People who meet with her can expect straightforward conversations, goal-focused planning, and encouragement to try new strategies. Danielle aims to empower people as they navigate difficult changes and rebuild stability in daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Danielle frequently uses cognitive behavioral therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and practicing new responses that reduce distress. It can help with anxiety, depression, and eating concerns by breaking cycles that keep problems going.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-based steps even when uncomfortable feelings are present. This approach is useful for managing anxiety, making life changes, and improving overall direction. Danielle also draws from attachment-based and client-centered ideas to build trust and a collaborative relationship.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Danielle will discuss goals and preferences and help pick methods that fit the person’s needs. She frames therapy as a team effort and adjusts methods as progress is made.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, it can cut down on travel, allow shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or avoid needing to be on camera if that helps someone focus. Ask about the available session options when you schedule to choose what works best.
