Meet Danielle
Experiencing a major loss at a young age instilled a desire within me to offer support and guidance to people, especially, couples and families, through some of life’s most difficult challenges. Years later, while pursuing my Master’s degree in Couple and Family therapy at the University of Colorado-Denver, I stumbled upon Attachment Theory and was given the opportunity to work closely with couples, families, and individuals with deep attachment wounds and histories of trauma. This experience greatly shaped my identity as a therapist and helped me to realize the far-reaching impacts that attachment can have on your life. I believe that by exploring your attachment history and understanding the way that your early attachment experiences influenced your views of yourself, the world, and your relationships with others, you can reclaim control of your experience and begin the healing process through connection.
I feel honored to walk beside my clients in their therapeutic journey. I believe it is my responsibility as the therapist to provide a safe, welcoming environment where clients feel comfortable being vulnerable and doing the work necessary to actualize the changes they would like to see. I combine mindfulness and experiential techniques with attachment therapy to create a safe place for clients to view their situation from a different lens and examine the way that their past and present systems are affecting the issues they bring to therapy.
When I’m not seeing clients, I’m usually baking, cooking, reading, or catching up on my favorite show. I also love spending time outdoors and exploring the mountains with my husband and our son!
