About Danielle
Danielle Stivers is a licensed clinical professional counselor practicing in Maryland. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, life changes, addiction concerns, relationship and family strains, grief, and anger. She also supports people managing ADHD, bipolar symptoms, parenting strain, and career-related stress. Her approach is direct and supportive, aimed at helping people take practical steps toward feeling better.
Danielle keeps sessions straightforward and focused. She builds an accepting space where people can talk through their thoughts and feelings without judgment. Conversations often include goal-setting and simple strategies to manage symptoms between meetings.
Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the person’s goals and experience, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify concrete steps people can try right away. These methods are used to help with mood, motivation, relationships, and coping during life transitions.
Outside of therapy, Danielle brings a background in nutrition and fitness to her practice. She is a nutrition coach and personal trainer and often blends movement and lifestyle ideas into the therapeutic work when clients are interested. This can include small behavior changes to support better mood and confidence.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and Danielle aims to make that step manageable. She meets people where they are, focuses on realistic changes, and supports steady progress toward clearer goals.
How Danielle Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Client-Centered Therapy means the work focuses on the person’s own goals and experience. The therapist listens carefully and follows the client’s lead to help them feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns and manage symptoms. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes clear, short-term goals and small steps that can make a difference quickly.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and preferences and together decide which methods to use. That plan can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.
Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for sessions from different locations when needed. It can also make brief check-ins and regular follow-ups simpler to schedule. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques like CBT exercises, goal planning, and problem-solving work to an online setting to help clients progress toward their goals.
