About Danielle
Danielle Deramo is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 11 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, eating issues, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related struggles, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and related challenges.
Danielle uses practical strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). She adapts methods to match the goals a person brings to sessions. Conversations focus on clear steps people can try between appointments and on noticing what gets in the way of those steps.
Her approach also attends to attachment patterns and how past relationships affect present ones. That lens can help when family history, abandonment, or caregiving roles shape daily stress. She pays attention to communication problems, control issues, and common co-occurring concerns like chronic illness or body image struggles.
Sessions include practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving sleep and eating patterns, and reducing unhelpful thinking. Danielle also supports people coping with life changes and grief, and those working through trauma recovery at a steady pace.
People who choose Danielle tend to want clear guidance along with time to reflect. She asks about current goals and then outlines focused steps to work on. To begin, prospective clients follow the site's matching and scheduling process to arrange a first session.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with sleep problems, mood, eating patterns, and anxiety. Attachment-based ideas focus on how early relationships shape expectations and reactions in current relationships, which can be useful when family or intimacy issues feel stuck.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Danielle will talk with a client about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. Sessions can shift over time as needs change, and the plan is revisited regularly to keep it practical and relevant.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals often use the same therapeutic tools online as they do in person, with a focus on skills practice, homework between sessions, and clear goal-setting to help progress feel manageable.
