01About Danielle
Danielle Johnston helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and problems with self-esteem. She also supports those facing life changes, grief, trauma, addictive behaviors, and struggles with intimacy or body image. Danielle brings 24 years of counseling experience and practices as a Licensed Professional Counselor, working from a hopeful, practical perspective.
Her style is warm and interactive. Sessions focus on clear skills and small, doable steps clients can try between meetings.
Background and approach
She frames therapy like coaching - helping clients notice patterns, practice new responses, and build confidence over time. Danielle draws on several evidence-based approaches to match a person’s needs. She uses methods that help people change unhelpful thoughts, calm strong emotions, and repair attachment or relationship difficulties.
Treatment plans are tailored to the individual and aim for measurable, short-term gains alongside longer-term growth. In the room she helps people learn to regulate their nervous system, manage cravings or compulsive behaviors, and improve communication. Clients work on goals such as better sleep, fewer panic reactions, healthier eating patterns, or steadier mood swings.
Exercises, homework, and skill-building are a regular part of the process. Danielle works with people who want practical tools and steady encouragement. She sets a tone of validation and challenge, with tasks designed to show progress between sessions.
Her focus is on helping clients feel more capable, calmer, and clearer about next steps.

04Online support
Approach-driven online counseling for real life struggles
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then take action that matches their values; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with new behaviors to reduce symptoms like panic, low mood, and sleep disruption. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people build more supported ways of relating and communicating.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That process includes checking what helps, adjusting techniques, and setting short-term tasks so progress is visible.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counseling more flexible. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and real-time skill practice. Phone sessions can fit a commute or take less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging work well for quick check-ins, short coaching-style prompts, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while still working on behavior changes and emotional regulation.
