About Danielle
Danielle Stivers is a licensed counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, and life changes. She supports those coping with low self-esteem, depression, addiction concerns, relationship and family problems, and work or career stress. Danielle draws on practical strategies to help clients feel steadier day to day.
She keeps sessions straightforward and focused. Danielle creates a calm space where people can name what’s hardest and try new ways of handling it.
Background and approach
Conversations aim to be direct and useful, not full of jargon. Danielle uses a mix of client-centered work, cognitive behavioral ideas, and solution-focused techniques. That means she listens first, helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns, and looks for small changes that make a real difference.
Sessions often include skills practice and short-term goals. Her background combines 12 years of clinical experience with a strong interest in fitness and nutrition. Danielle also works as a nutrition coach and personal trainer, and she often brings movement and lifestyle habits into care when clients want that.
This practical lens helps clients build confidence and manage symptoms like anxiety and low mood. People who come to Danielle usually want clear steps, steady support, and realistic plans they can try between sessions. She works with adults to address issues such as trauma, grief, parenting strain, ADHD, bipolar challenges, and problems with trust or commitment.

Approaches that guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting, nonjudgmental space. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change patterns that worsen anxiety, depression, anger, or low mood.Danielle blends these methods with solution-focused techniques that aim for quick, practical changes. Together they let clients name a problem, try small experiments, and notice what works. Deciding which approach to emphasize is a shared process; she works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals, needs, and comfort level.
Online sessions make it easier to fit care into a busy life. Video calls let people see body language and try skills together. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good option for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging support ongoing coaching, quick problem-solving, and check-ins between sessions. These formats increase flexibility and help people get consistent support without rearranging their whole day.
