You belong here just as much as anyone else.
Let’s get acquainted.
PorkChop wants you to know you’re doing great!
Hi there, I’m Danielle…
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Missouri and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois, holding over a decade of experience working in a variety of mental health spaces. I received my Master of Arts in Professional Counseling at Lindenwood University and continue to strive to better educate myself in the ever evolving world of psychotherapy and self-awareness through ongoing training.
I have provided clinical care in many different settings, including agency-based, in-home, residential, and outpatient therapeutic environments. I have experience working with persons struggling with depression, anxiety, substance abuse/dependence, co-occurring disorders, complex trauma, eating disorders, life transitions, family violence and parent/child relationships, attachment dynamics, gender and sexual identity, racial prejudice and LGBTQIA+-struggles. I am passionate in creating dynamic relationships that can provide both nurturance and encourage compassionate reflection as clients gain the insights necessary to forge new found self-awareness and cultivate change.
The values I bring into the therapeutic process work to reflect the values I hold so dear—as a curious Gemini, fostering duality and traversing the ‘gray areas’ of life can hold some of our most precious insights. Through gentle guidance, you will determine which stone in your garden of experience is unturned without being discarded.
When I’m not holding therapeutic space, you can find me dancing with my 80 pound dog to whatever latest album makes me groove, hiking in the woods, making art with my pals or soaking up an evening of dinner and movies with my partner.
and here you are living
despite it all.
