About Danielle

Danielle Doskocil is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 24 years of experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, family and parenting challenges, trauma and grief, and help with sleep, anger, and self-esteem. Danielle uses straightforward, practical conversations to help parents and adults identify problems and try workable solutions.

She speaks English and practices from South Carolina. Her style centers on the client.

Background and approach

Danielle listens first and adapts how she works to each person’s needs. She uses goal-focused tools when the situation calls for them and stays candid while building on a person’s strengths. Sessions may include coaching on parenting skills, strategies for managing symptoms, and step-by-step plans for behavior change.

Danielle draws on several evidence-based methods, especially cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing, along with narrative and solution-focused elements. These help with habits and addictions, mood shifts, and stressful family dynamics. She explains tools in plain language and practices skills together with clients during sessions.

She has particular experience with co-occurring mental health concerns, blended family issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, codependency, and substance and process addictions. Danielle also supports people working through divorce or separation, immigration-related concerns, and feelings of isolation. New clients begin by completing an intake and scheduling the first session.

Danielle offers several remote session formats and uses a subscription model for ongoing care. Availability and fees vary by location and therapist schedule.

How Danielle Uses Practical Therapies Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and adapting to each person. It helps people feel heard and shapes the work around their goals rather than a fixed agenda. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and managing cravings. Motivational Interviewing is a short-term, collaborative style that helps people find their own motivation to change behaviors like substance use or other habits.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Danielle will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time based on what proves useful in sessions.

Online therapy with Danielle is offered through multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit work into parenting schedules, shift work, or long days. Remote sessions let clients practice skills between meetings and return to tools when challenges come up, offering flexibility and continuity of care with licensed professionals.

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.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
