Zoila (Mimi) Danta

Zoila (Mimi) Danta is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people who are struggling with anger and related concerns. She speaks both English and Spanish and brings 39 years of experience working with adults and older adults. Her approach is practical and direct, aimed at helping people make changes that matter in day-to-day life.

She has long experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, depression, substance use, relationship strain, grief, parenting challenges, and trauma. She has also worked in program leadership roles and provided education and group work for people with substance use concerns. That background informs how she organizes treatment and plans goals with each person.

In sessions she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people identify patterns, try different responses, and set specific, achievable goals. Treatment plans are tailored to each person rather than following a single template. Conversations are framed so clients can try small changes between sessions and notice what works.

She values cultural sensitivity and treats people with respect and empathy. Her experience includes working in clinical programs, training other clinicians, and facilitating groups, and that practical experience influences how she structures care. She emphasizes collaboration and clear steps toward better coping.

Zoila invites people who feel overwhelmed to take a first step. She encourages straightforward planning, realistic goals, and steady progress so clients can regain more control over anger, mood, and daily challenges.

How Zoila's Approaches Work Online and in Sessions

Zoila uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, try new responses, and track what changes. CBT is often useful for anger, anxiety, and depression because it focuses on practical steps and skill building.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on small, achievable goals and what the client wants to see differently. This approach can be helpful for shifting daily habits, improving communication, and managing immediate problems without spending long periods on past details.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about their needs, preferences, and goals, and then suggest techniques to try. Decisions about methods and pacing are collaborative, with regular check-ins to see what is helping.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people continue work with the same therapist across locations when international arrangements are agreed on.
