About Danielle
Danielle Poehlman is a licensed professional counselor and a licensed mental health counselor with nine years of clinical experience. She brings a personal connection to her work, having watched addiction and mental illness affect close family members. That experience shaped her decision to pursue counseling and to focus on helping people who struggle with loss, addiction, mood concerns, and anger.
She earned a bachelor's degree in psychology from Florida International University and a master’s degree in mental health counseling from Capella University.
Background and approach
Danielle blends practical talk therapy with empathy and a strengths-based stance. Sessions are collaborative and aim to build skills people can use between meetings. Her approach is flexible and draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior ideas, motivational interviewing, and narrative techniques.
Danielle often helps people address stress, anxiety, sleep problems, depression, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and anger. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, intimacy-related concerns, and career stress. Danielle is knowledgeable about adoption and foster-care issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, kink and alternative sex culture, codependency, and caregiver stress.
She works to make therapy practical, offering education and tools that fit daily life. The focus is on clear steps and steady progress rather than jargon. Sessions may include skill practice, goal setting, and talking through difficult memories.

How therapy approaches guide online work
Danielle often uses client-centered therapy, which means sessions begin with the person's experience and priorities. This approach focuses on listening, understanding, and shaping sessions around what matters most to the client. It helps when someone wants a supportive space to sort feelings and make choices.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, a hands-on method that looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT provides specific skills and exercises to reduce anxiety, manage anger, improve sleep, and change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy ideas appear in her work too, offering emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and relationship skills for people who struggle with intense moods.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That may mean trying an approach for a few sessions and adjusting as progress and preferences emerge.
Online therapy offers practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions are an option when a shorter check-in or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing between sessions or want a flexible way to check in. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and keep continuity when schedules or locations change.
