About Danielle

Danielle Bonner is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with more than 23 years of experience. She practices in North Carolina and brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to therapy. Danielle works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strain, and parenting concerns. She also helps those coping with trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and issues related to grief and self-esteem.

Danielle combines several therapy styles to match each person’s needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts without getting stuck in them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her work when patterns of thinking and behavior need changing. Emotion-focused ideas and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are included when emotions and relationships are central concerns.

Her manner is realistic, kind, and interactive. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps rather than long lectures. Danielle treats people with dignity and tailors conversations and plans to fit each situation.

Over two decades in outpatient settings have given her experience with trauma, intimate partner violence, child abuse and neglect, and substance-related concerns. She also offers life coaching elements when clients want concrete habit and routine changes.

People who choose Danielle can expect straightforward dialogue, goal-oriented work, and tools to use between sessions. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability. Danielle holds the credentials LICSW and LISW-CP as listed.

Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit your life

Danielle uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as core parts of her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and anger. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and testing new ways of thinking to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Danielle will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which tools and techniques to try and adjust them as progress is made.

The biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and use tools like homework, worksheets, and skills practice between meetings. For many people, remote work reduces travel time and helps keep therapy consistent while they manage jobs, parenting, or other responsibilities.
