About Danielle
Danielle Dicentio is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. She brings three years of professional experience to her practice and aims to listen with sensitivity and respect. Danielle writes treatment plans that match each person's needs and goals.
She frames therapy as a practical, step-by-step process to make daily life feel more manageable. In sessions Danielle helps people talk through worry, low mood, and reactions to past trauma or abuse.
Background and approach
She also supports those coping with ADHD, family tensions, and issues around abandonment and attachment. Conversations often cover how worry shows up in behavior, relationships, sleep, and concentration, and then moves toward clear, doable steps to change those patterns. Danielle works with people dealing with chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image concerns, and the emotional impact of cancer.
She also addresses guilt, shame, dissociation, and impulsivity in ways that aim to reduce overwhelm and increase stability. Practical communication skills are a common focus when relationship strain is part of the problem. Her style is warm and straightforward.
Danielle tailors language and tools to each person so the work fits real life. She encourages small, measurable changes and reviews progress together during the course of care. Sessions are available in English and are offered through multiple online formats to fit different schedules and needs.
Evidence-informed approaches and online care
Danielle uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach emphasizes teaching coping skills to manage anxiety and stress, such as grounding strategies, structured problem solving, and routines that reduce overwhelm. These skills aim to help with day-to-day symptoms like racing thoughts, sleep disruption, and difficulty concentrating.Another area of focus is working through trauma-related responses and attachment concerns. This involves gradual exposure to distressing memories, learning ways to reduce dissociation, and building stronger emotional regulation so relationships and daily functioning feel steadier.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps and what doesn’t.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into a busy life. Video calls allow longer, face-to-face sessions; phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t wanted; live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins and brief skill practice between sessions. These options give flexibility for different schedules and communication preferences.
