About Danielle

Danielle Deramo is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with young adults on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, eating issues, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related problems, sleep difficulties, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, and ADHD.

Danielle combines straightforward talk therapy with practical skills. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to look at thinking patterns. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and take small actions. She also brings in attachment-informed work to look at how relationships affect feelings and behavior.

Sessions focus on clear goals and usable tools. Danielle helps people notice patterns, try new habits, and measure progress. She discusses skills such as emotion regulation, behavioral experiments, and values-based choices in simple, step-by-step ways.

She aims to plan treatment around the person’s goals rather than a fixed protocol. That means checking in about what’s working, adjusting approaches, and combining techniques from CBT, DBT, ACT, and attachment-based work when useful.

Danielle speaks English and practices in New York as an LMHC. Her background includes sustained work with eating disorder concerns and with people who have experienced physical or emotional abuse. To begin, the site matching process is used to schedule a first session and confirm current session options.

Many who seek her help are navigating early adult transitions such as starting work, leaving home, relationship changes, or feeling behind. She focuses on practical steps to manage symptoms and build routines that fit everyday life.

How Danielle blends approaches for online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches experiments and skills to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape emotional responses and can help with intimacy, relationship patterns, and trust issues.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. Danielle will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, try methods that fit those aims, and adjust plans based on what helps. The first sessions are used to identify priorities and pick a mix of techniques, not to lock someone into a single method.

The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a weekly routine and reducing travel time so therapy can be easier to keep up. Because the biography does not specify which online formats are used, confirm current session options before booking. The focus is on making therapy workable around work, school, or other commitments by arranging session times that suit everyday life and using methods that can be practiced between meetings.
