About Danielle

Danielle R Brady is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Dakota with 23 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and ADHD. Danielle also addresses codependency, attachment and family of origin issues, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue.

She prefers straightforward conversation in sessions. Danielle uses client-centered methods to follow what the person brings and to help people feel heard. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and create small, practical changes. Mindfulness practices are used to build moment-to-moment coping skills when worries or grief feel overwhelming.

Danielle has long experience helping people process major life changes. That includes separation, fertility struggles, losses, and adjustment after disaster or trauma. She also works with issues such as abandonment, commitment doubts, body image, and first responder stress. Sessions combine talking, skill practice, and reflection on patterns that repeat in relationships.

Her approach values direct respect and sensitivity. Danielle frames the work as collaborative; she helps set goals and checks in on progress. People who struggle with people-pleasing or who habitually put others first often find the focus shifts to clearer boundaries and steadier self-awareness.

How sessions work

How Danielle’s approaches translate to online sessions

Client-centered work focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. Online sessions let the therapist and client use conversation to clarify difficult patterns, test new ways of relating, and make concrete goals. This approach helps when someone is stuck in people-pleasing or has trouble asserting needs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. In practice this means identifying unhelpful thinking, trying small behavior changes, and reviewing results together. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and building steadier reactions in relationships.

Mindfulness practices teach simple attention skills to reduce reactivity and increase tolerance for strong feelings. These exercises are short and can be used between sessions to handle urges to overfunction for others or to manage intense grief.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, and then recommend which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress is tracked.

The source biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce commuting time. Those practical benefits can help keep therapy consistent while fitting everyday responsibilities.
