01About Danielle
Danielle Stivers helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. She also supports people facing relationship and family concerns, addiction, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, career questions, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. Danielle holds MD and is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, LCPC, in Maryland and has 12 years of clinical experience.
She keeps sessions straightforward and down-to-earth. Conversations focus on what feels most urgent and practical next steps.
Background and approach
Danielle creates a calm, nonjudgmental space so people can talk about hard feelings and get clearer on what they want to change. Her approach mixes client-centered listening with evidence-based techniques such as cognitive behavioral work and solution-focused planning. That means she listens first, helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and then sets small, achievable goals to try between sessions.
Danielle brings a wellness lens to therapy. She also works as a nutrition coach and personal trainer and often integrates movement, fitness, and lifestyle choices into therapy when clients want that. This can help with mood, sleep, energy, and confidence in daily life.
Sessions are practical and collaborative. Danielle helps people break problems into manageable steps, experiment with changes, and track what works. She encourages realistic progress rather than quick fixes and supports clients as they build new habits and strengths.

04Online support
Approaches and online options that fit your life
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience. The therapist follows your lead, reflects what matters to you, and helps you make sense of feelings and choices. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and functioning; it breaks problems into specific patterns and teaches practical skills to change them. Solution-focused therapy emphasizes setting clear, short-term goals and trying small steps that can produce quick improvements.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to your situation and lets you adjust the plan over time.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let you have a face-to-face conversation from wherever you are. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging let you check in or do brief follow-ups between sessions and can fit into busy days. These options make scheduling and maintaining therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
