Hey! I'm Dannielle I'm here to help guide, support, and encourage you along with my therapy dog Penelope. I specialize in pregnancy, perinatal, postpartum mental health assisting parents navigate the waters of parenthood from infertility, pregnancy and, through the unexpected challenges that come with being a parent such as postpartum mood disorders. Penelope the therapy pit provides a sense of safety, calm present, and grounding in session. My areas of focus are career/ college stress, trauma and the LGBTQ2S+ community I have special experience in EMDR- trauma therapy. EMDR is an evidence based therapy to treat PTSD symptoms as well as depression and anxiety. EMDR is extremely affective in reducing symptoms but can take 6-8 sessions or more in order to complete. EMDR can help with birth trauma, traumatic pregnancies and miscarriages. I am collaborative, respectful to your personal history, and fully engaged in the process with you. This process can feel daunting, but you're on the right track. My goal is to have you leave our sessions feeling empowered and that you are making progress towards eliminating the issues that are holding you back from the best you.
