About Danielle

Danielle Poehlman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with nine years of clinical experience. She practices in South Carolina and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Danielle also lists codependency among her focus areas and supports people confronting abandonment, attachment struggles, and communication or control issues.

Danielle's personal history with family addiction and loss shaped her decision to become a counselor. She graduated Magna Cum Laude with a BA in psychology from Florida International University and earned a master's degree in mental health counseling from Capella University. Those experiences inform how she listens and what she prioritizes in sessions.

Her approach blends client-centered listening with practical strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. Motivational interviewing and narrative methods also appear in her work. Sessions tend to emphasize strengths, straightforward problem solving, and steps people can use between meetings.

Danielle notes familiarity with highly sensitive people and offers education and coping tools for those who feel overwhelmed by others' emotions. She also mentions being kink-friendly for intimacy and relationship questions, and she frames therapy as teamwork where rapport guides the plan.

People who prefer direct, motivational support and clear coping techniques may find this style useful. Danielle accepts international clients and conducts work in English. Before booking, confirm current session formats and any logistics that matter to you.

How sessions work

How Danielle uses therapy approaches online

Client-centered therapy places the client's perspective first and focuses on active listening and respect for personal goals. This approach helps people who need space to name their priorities and make choices at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into specific patterns to change. CBT is useful for anxiety, mood problems, sleep issues, and for learning concrete tools to manage daily stressors.

Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will listen to what matters to the client, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That means sessions can mix listening, skill practice, and brief homework tasks to see what fits best for an individual's needs and goals.

This profile does not list specific session formats here, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - sessions can be scheduled around work breaks, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use pacing and skill practice between meetings without promising a particular service. Licensed professionals can help match session length and frequency to the rhythms of daily life.
