About Danielle
Dr. Danielle Johnson is a licensed professional counselor (LCPC) based in Maryland who focuses on helping people move through stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and life changes. She offers calm, attentive listening and practical tools to help clients manage emotional pain and day-to-day struggles.
Her work often addresses substance use concerns, mood and anxiety issues, relationship conflict, and adjustment after big life events. She emphasizes a client-centered approach that treats wellness as a journey rather than a single fix. The first part of sessions is usually spent understanding what matters most to the person in front of her.
With eight years of clinical experience, she brings steady support for people coping with trauma, sexual assault, and attachment or codependency concerns. She also helps people navigating immigration-related stress, feelings of emptiness, and complicated grief.
Dr. Johnson integrates practical techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy alongside emotion-focused work. She uses skills and conversation to reduce harmful patterns and build healthier ways of relating to oneself and others.
She is pursuing a counseling-related doctoral degree and describes therapy as a collaborative path. People who meet with her can expect focused attention, clear coping strategies, and an emphasis on gradual progress toward greater resilience and purpose.
Online work and approach options
Dr. Johnson draws on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide online work. Client-centered Therapy focuses on listening, respect, and following the person's pace so people feel understood and valued. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks stressful thoughts and behaviors into smaller parts and teaches practical strategies to shift them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and addiction-related patterns.She also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when teaching emotional regulation and coping skills for intense feelings. These approaches are described and adapted in collaboration with each person, so the therapist and client decide together which tools to try based on goals and needs.
If you are considering online work, confirm the specific session formats available before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when useful, and reduce travel time. Many people find it simpler to try different approaches and practice new skills between meetings when therapy fits their schedule.
