About Daniele
Daniele DeOliveira is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on practical, compassionate support for people facing family and parenting concerns. She uses clear, direct conversation to help clients manage stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship strains. Daniele works in English, Spanish, and Portuguese and brings 18 years of professional experience in Florida to each meeting.
Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. She listens first, then helps set small, concrete goals that fit daily life.
Background and approach
Sessions often include tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and mindfulness practices to calm the body and mind. Daniele also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and take steps that matter, even when feelings are difficult.
She adapts techniques to the situation, whether the focus is parenting, blended family issues, adoption and foster care questions, or coping with life changes like aging or immigration challenges. She pays attention to background issues that affect families, such as family of origin patterns, guilt and shame, isolation, or career stress.
The work aims to improve day-to-day functioning and relationships rather than quick fixes. Sessions move at the client’s pace while keeping practical change in view. People who choose Daniele can expect a respectful, culturally aware space.
She frames the work around values, skills, and small steps that add up to meaningful change over time.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck on them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, grief, parenting stress, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing behaviors with practical exercises and homework to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Daniele will work together with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, pace, and preferences. That collaboration means techniques can be blended or adjusted as needs evolve during online care.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules, manage childcare needs, or connect across time zones. The variety of formats allows for focused conversations, brief check-ins, or ongoing problem-solving in ways that suit different routines and comfort levels.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
