About Daniella
Dr. Daniella Jackson is a licensed mental health counselor with two decades of clinical experience. She works from Florida and offers help in English and Portuguese.
Her background centers on addiction, mood concerns, and relationship strain as people juggle life changes and stress. Dr. Jackson uses practical talk and skills-based work.
She brings cognitive behavioral tools to challenge unhelpful thinking patterns. She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice values and take small steps that matter.
Background and approach
Her practice includes support for anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and trauma-related concerns. She helps people facing addiction and the ripple effects that brings to loved ones. Problems with sleep, eating, intimacy, and self-esteem are also part of her focus.
Dr. Jackson has long experience with adults coping with substance-related and behavioral addictions. That work exposed her to the impact addiction can have on family members, and she often helps those affected by someone else’s use or behaviors.
Sessions tend to be collaborative and straightforward. She listens, maps what isn’t working, and helps set clear, achievable goals. Practical steps and short-term strategies are a common part of her work.
Outside the clinic she keeps a regular meditation and walking practice and is an animal lover. She is originally from Brazil and brings bilingual skills to sessions for people who prefer English or Portuguese.
Approaches and how they work online
Dr. Jackson often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their values, accept difficult thoughts, and take small purposeful actions toward what matters. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related struggles, and coping with life changes.She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, sleep and eating difficulties, and many everyday problems where skills and practice make a difference.
Attachment-based ideas and client-centered listening guide how she builds trust and explores relationship patterns. Those approaches are helpful when intimacy, communication, or family stress are part of the concern.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose approaches that match goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That process can include trying a few techniques and adjusting as needed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options aim to make regular care more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
