About Danielle
Danielle Cummings is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with eight years of clinical experience. She approaches therapy as a collaborative process and invites clients to tell their stories at a comfortable pace. Danielle aims to build a warm, honest connection so people feel heard and understood.
She brings a down-to-earth style to sessions and uses practical methods that people can try between appointments. Conversations are guided by empathy and curiosity, not judgment.
Background and approach
Danielle helps clients sort through immediate stresses as well as longer standing patterns that keep causing pain. Her work addresses a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, relationship struggles, parenting stress, and identity questions. She also supports people coping with trauma, attachment issues, body image, communication problems, and life transitions.
Sessions can focus on short-term relief or deeper exploration depending on the person’s goals. Danielle relies on tools from cognitive behavioral approaches, acceptance-based work, attachment-focused ideas, dialectical skills, and client-centered listening. She aims to match techniques to each person rather than follow a single method.
The approach is practical, relational, and focused on real-life change. She practices in Indiana and offers sessions in English. Danielle draws on community mental health experience and a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy/Professional Counseling from Johnson University in Knoxville, Tennessee.
Her background includes work across diverse cultural and socioeconomic settings.
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, stress, and questions about purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and teaching practical skills to change them. CBT is commonly used for depression, anxiety, and mood regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Danielle will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust as needed. That collaborative process helps people see which tools feel most helpful for their situation.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care easier to fit into daily life. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone calls can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Chat and text are helpful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when a shorter touchpoint is needed between sessions. These options aim to increase flexibility and make regular work toward goals more practical.
