About Danielle
I became a therapist because I have personally experienced
the value of therapy and the impact it can have on growth and
self-understanding. Through my own journey, I have gained insight into myself
and the world around me, and I carry that perspective into the work I do with
my clients.
These experiences have shaped me into a warm, approachable,
and self-aware individual, and I am passionate about helping others better
understand themselves, their experiences, and their place in the world.
My Approach
I believe that therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Each person
is unique, and their therapeutic experience should reflect that.
My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to
each individual. I meet clients where they are and move at a pace that feels
comfortable for them, ensuring that therapy remains both effective and
meaningful.
I primarily draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT),
Person-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment
Therapy (ACT). By integrating different approaches, I am able to adapt sessions
to best support each client’s needs, goals, and experiences.
Clinical Qualifications
As a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPC-A) and National Certified Counselor (NCC), I bring both state-recognized credentials to my work. I earned my Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Texas A & M University-San Antonio where I built a strong foundation in counseling theory, ethics, and clinical practice. I practice under the supervision of Amanda M. Navarez, PhD, LPC-S, who supports my ongoing clinical growth and helps ensure that I provide care aligned with the highest ethical and professional standards. I am committed to delivering evidence-based, compassionate care in a way that feels genuine, supportive, and approachable. My NCC credential reflects advanced training and demonstrated competency at a national level. My approach blends professionalism with authenticity, creating a space where clients feel seen, heard, and genuinely supported.
My Core Values
Inherent Worth

Warmth & Connection
Healing thrives in a safe, inviting atmosphere. I prioritize building a genuine, trusting therapeutic relationship.
Collaborative Growth
You are the expert on your life. I believe that therapy is not one-size-fits-all.
