Danielle
is a therapist at Two Chairs.
Danielle believes that people can develop a more compassionate relationship with themselves and others when given an authentic space to connect. Known for her empathy, sensitivity and big heart, she brings a warm, grounded presence to her work. Her focus is on helping clients discover the patterns that hold them back and how to take intentional, meaningful steps towards change. Danielle's approach is genuine, collaborative and strength-based, grounded in somatic, cognitive, parts work and trauma-informed practices.
In her spare time, Danielle enjoys traveling, relaxing with a book, going to the ocean, quality time with her family as a mom and always finding reasons to laugh.
