About Danielle

Danielle Poehlman is a licensed professional counselor who came to therapy through personal experience with family addiction and loss. She holds a master’s degree in mental health counseling and brings nine years of clinical experience to her work. Danielle frames therapy as a team effort and focuses on helping people find practical coping steps they can use day to day.

She draws from client-centered methods to build trust and safety in the room. Danielle also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people change unhelpful thinking and DBT skills to manage strong emotions. Motivational interviewing and narrative approaches are part of how she helps people make changes and reframe difficult stories.

Danielle often supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood concerns, and substance use struggles. She also helps with relationship and intimacy-related issues, codependency, grief, caregiver stress, attention concerns, and trauma-related symptoms. She notes experience with a wide range of concerns, including some personality and attachment struggles and work with kink-friendly relationship topics.

Her style is strengths-based and motivational. She uses empathic listening and practical tools together, and tailors plans to each person’s needs. Danielle emphasizes small, steady steps and clear skills people can practice between sessions.

Danielle is licensed as an LPC and as an LMHC and is located in South Carolina. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options with the intake process.

How Danielle’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience and building trust. It helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to talk and to make choices at their own pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to change them. CBT is helpful for anxiety, depression, and many stress-related problems.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal skills. It is useful for managing intense feelings and improving day-to-day coping.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to match goals and preferences to methods that fit their situation. That means trying practical tools and adjusting based on what helps.

The profile does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break or arranging appointments without travel time. Some formats also allow people to avoid being on camera or use lower bandwidth when needed. Licensed professionals can guide how to adapt exercises and homework to an online setting so therapy remains practical and focused.
