01 · Who Daniell works with

Daniell works with addictions, relationship issues and family conflicts

Daniell lists 16 specialisms and 33 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Daniell chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.

02 · In Daniell's own words

What Daniell says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

As an LPC, I have had the opportunity of working within various areas of study. They include addictions, anxiety, male and female issues, anger management, stress, and self-esteem just to name a few.

Be mindful that one can be triggered by memories, good and bad. These triggers can lead to low self-esteem, depression, validation issues, traumatic events, and even stress. Moreover, they can lead to variety of addictions. These triggers and addictions can then lead to internal struggles that can affect your family, employment or even your way of life, which can be hard to overcome. I will help you shift your distorted of thoughts and beliefs and transform them so that you can take a stand to become your own hero.

03 · How Daniell works

The 4 approaches Daniell lists, in plain English

These are the clinical methods Daniell lists. The descriptions are Maker Therapy's, not Daniell's - a general explanation of what each method is, so the list means something before you have spoken to anybody. They are not a claim about how Daniell runs a session.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Reads present-day relationship difficulty through the lens of how safety and closeness were learned early on. The therapeutic relationship itself is treated as part of the work, because it is where the pattern tends to show up first.

Cognitive Behavioural TherapyCBT

Structured, present-focused work on the loop between what you think, how you feel and what you then do. Usually means noticing a thought pattern in the room, testing it against evidence, and practising something different between sessions. Among the most heavily researched talking therapies for depression and anxiety.

Motivational InterviewingMI

A way of talking about change with somebody who is genuinely in two minds about it. The therapist does not argue for the change; they help you say your own reasons out loud, which is the part that predicts whether it happens. Common around substance use and health behaviour.

Solution-Focused Brief TherapySFBT

Starts from where you want to end up rather than from how you got here. Sessions look for the times the problem is already smaller and work out what is different about those, so the number of sessions tends to be short and the work concrete.

04 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Daniell practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Daniell's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

   BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Daniell at this point.

2. Naming Daniell specifically

   BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Daniell is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Daniell.

3. If the caseload is full

   You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

4. The first conversation

   A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

5. If the fit is wrong

   Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Before you commit

3 questions worth asking Daniell

Built from what Daniell actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Daniell's - Daniell has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

• “You list both Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy. Which do you lean on with someone like me?”

  Those two point in different directions - one structured and led by the therapist, the other led by you. The answer tells you what the sessions will actually feel like.

• “How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”

  Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.

• “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

  On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

07 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Daniell's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Daniell. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
