01About Danielle
Danielle Behrens is a licensed professional counselor with 26 years of clinical experience in Wisconsin. She focuses on helping adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, stress, and relationship concerns. Danielle aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for people trying to cope and move forward.
Danielle spends sessions listening closely and helping people name what matters most to them. She uses concrete tools to manage overwhelming feelings, reduce reactivity, and build better daily routines.
Background and approach
Conversations center on small steps that fit into real life rather than abstract theory. Her work often addresses issues like ADHD, bipolar symptoms, addictions, grief, intimacy-related concerns, body image, and career stress. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care questions, and blended family dynamics.
Danielle pays attention to how attachment and early relationships shape current patterns. Therapy blends several approaches to match each person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral ideas, dialectical skills, attachment-based insights, and a client-centered style.
Those methods are used to increase awareness, build skills, and clarify values. People who choose Danielle can expect a calm, direct style with practical homework and check-ins between sessions when needed. Her aim is to help clients gain skills that stick so they can handle life changes with more confidence.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Danielle commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centered techniques. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes where moving forward matters more than getting rid of every feeling. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and emotions. It helps people understand their reactions in relationships and build more supported ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Danielle will talk with each person about their goals, past experiences, and what feels most helpful. Together they pick methods and tools that fit the person’s needs and daily life rather than one fixed protocol.
Online therapy offers a range of practical options including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let visual cues guide the conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat provides a shorter check-in format, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines while keeping the focus on usable skills and steady progress.
