Background and approach
Danna helps clients sort through guilt, shame, and questions of life purpose while also addressing body image and caregiver stress. In sessions she encourages honest talk without judgment. She and the client work together to set realistic goals and try small changes between meetings.
That might include experimenting with new ways to talk about problems or practicing short exercises to calm anxiety. Her style is collaborative and steady. She listens for patterns that keep problems stuck and helps people try different responses.
If grief or family strain feels heavy, she supports pacing the work so it’s doable. With 15 years of experience as a licensed clinical social worker, Danna brings a practical outlook to emotional challenges. She accepts international clients and offers care in English.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on changing unhelpful patterns and building practical skills. One common approach helps people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety or low self-esteem; it uses step-by-step practices to test new ways of thinking and acting and is useful for social anxiety, low self-worth, and body image concerns. Another approach emphasizes processing loss and strong emotions through paced conversations and memory work, which can help when grief or life transitions feel overwhelming.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit the client’s needs, and adjust over time based on what helps. Clients and therapist decide together which tools to use and how quickly to move.
The original biography does not list specific session formats. Please confirm current online session options before booking. That said, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that remote sessions help them keep continuity of care while balancing work, family, and caregiving responsibilities.
