About Danielle
Danielle Poehlman is a licensed professional counselor with nine years of clinical experience. She holds LPC and LMHC credentials and built her path to counseling after family experiences with addiction and mental illness. Danielle brings a practical, strengths-based focus to sessions and aims to make therapy approachable for people feeling overwhelmed.
She uses straightforward talk and listening to help clients sort out stress, anxiety, grief, and changes in life. Danielle draws on motivational techniques and person-centered care to help people find what matters to them.
Background and approach
She also works with concerns such as depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, addictions, and trauma-related issues. Danielle blends skill-based strategies with longer term work on patterns that cause pain. She may use cognitive behavioral ideas to challenge unhelpful thinking and dialectical behavior tools to teach emotion and crisis skills.
Narrative approaches help people reframe difficult stories and discover new options. She is familiar with issues around identity and LGBT concerns, and she is open to kink-friendly conversations about intimacy and relationships. Danielle also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, attachment questions, abandonment, and complex trauma reactions like dissociation.
Clients can expect a motivational, empathic tone in sessions where therapist and client collaborate on goals. Danielle emphasizes practical coping skills alongside deeper therapeutic work, tailoring plans to each person’s needs and pace.
Approaches that translate well to online work
Danielle often uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening, empathy, and helping people set their own goals. That approach helps when someone needs a calm space to talk through stress, grief, or identity questions. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a focused method that looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical tools to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or address ADHD-related challenges.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Danielle treats that as a team process - she will discuss options, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what feels most useful to the client. Goals, pace, and personal preferences guide which methods are used in sessions.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different needs. Video is useful for more conversational therapy and skill coaching. Phone sessions are an option when video isn’t convenient or bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can support shorter check-ins, coaching between sessions, or a way to communicate when typing feels easier than speaking.
