About Danielle

Danielle Pompey-Plummer offers family and parenting-focused care for parents worried about their children and teens. She writes plainly and listens closely to what families bring. Parents find her straightforward and steady when problems feel overwhelming.

Danielle uses clear steps and practical strategies so families can try changes at home. She brings 22 years of clinical experience working with children and adolescents. Danielle holds a master’s degree in psychology and is a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC.

Background and approach

Much of her work has been in partial hospital programs and community clinics in New Jersey, where she supported young people with mood, behavioral, and social challenges. Danielle has supervised clinicians and served as a clinical leader in a variety of settings.

She has worked as a Senior Primary Therapist in a Children’s Partial Hospital Program and has led program teams in hospital-based treatment. That background informs how she helps families structure consistent routines and safety plans when needed. Her approach uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to manage moods and reactions.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to strengthen parent-child connection and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and goals. Sessions focus on doable skills parents can practice between meetings. Danielle provides care from New Jersey and conducts sessions in English.

She combines years of hands-on work with a calm coaching style to help families navigate stress, grief, parenting challenges, ADHD, anxiety, depression, and changes in family life.

Approaches you can use in online family care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people identify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values, even when emotions are difficult. It can be useful for parents and teens facing big decisions or life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which helps with anxiety, mood shifts, and disruptive behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes building trust and stronger connections between caregivers and children to improve relationship patterns and reduce conflict.

Picking the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with caregivers and young people about goals, try practical tools, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Clients and the therapist work together to find methods that fit home life and the family's priorities.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and observation of interactions, while phone, live chat, and text-based messaging let families use shorter check-ins or follow-up coaching between sessions. This flexibility lets parents practice strategies in real time and bring concrete situations into session for immediate problem-solving.

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.

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.
