Daria Datnoff, LCSW

Daria Datnoff is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of experience based in North Carolina. She focuses on family and parenting concerns and also helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and relationship problems. Her work includes support for parenting strain, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and challenges tied to addiction or mood disorders.

She describes therapy as a collaborative effort. Sessions look at patterns in relationships and how those patterns affect daily life. Daria draws on attachment ideas and client-centered methods to notice how people relate to others and to themselves. She also uses cognitive-behavioral and emotion-focused techniques when they fit the problem.

Daria values a connection with the natural world as part of healing. That perspective informs how she frames problems and coping strategies when clients are open to it. She has worked across settings with children, adolescents, at-risk youth, adults, and families, which shapes how she approaches family-related concerns.

In practical terms she works in straightforward ways: listening to what feels most urgent, naming unhelpful patterns, and trying new ways of interacting. She may suggest skills from DBT for emotion regulation or CBT for changing anxious thinking.

Her approach emphasizes relationships and everyday routines. People who come for parenting or family stress can expect focused conversations about communication, boundaries, and managing strong emotions. The first sessions typically identify immediate concerns and set simple, achievable steps to try between meetings.
