About Danielle

Danielle Loptien is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges with self-esteem. She supports clients facing relationship struggles, anger, ADHD, and LGBT-related concerns. Danielle speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.

She creates an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what matters most to them. Sessions aim to identify clear goals and small changes that add up over time.

Background and approach

Danielle encourages courage and steady progress rather than quick fixes. Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. She also uses client-centered listening to ensure each person feels heard and understood.

Solution-focused work helps people find realistic next steps when they feel stuck. Danielle is licensed as an LPC in both Oregon and Colorado - OR LPC C7507 and CO LPC LPC.0015506 - and brings six years of professional experience. That background includes supporting mood disorders, postpartum concerns, body image, and social anxiety among other issues.

Sessions move at the client’s pace, with an emphasis on practical tools for daily life. She takes a collaborative stance and adapts methods to match each person’s goals and situation.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Danielle uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and to build practical coping skills for anxiety, low mood, and stress. She also works from a client-centered stance, offering focused, empathetic listening that helps clients feel understood and make choices that fit their lives.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and situation. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting as needed so the plan stays useful.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions offer a simpler option, and live chat or text-based messaging can support more frequent check-ins and brief coaching between meetings. These formats provide flexibility for scheduling and allow clients to use the approach that feels most practical for them.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
