About Danielle
Danielle Bonner is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who brings 23 years of experience to her practice. She uses practical, interactive therapy to help people struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, parenting strain, and other life changes. Danielle also supports those coping with trauma, grief, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Her manner is down-to-earth and respectful.
Danielle blends several therapeutic approaches to match each person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their values and take action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy inform skills for emotion regulation and improving close relationships.
Her style is realistic and interactive. Sessions focus on clear goals, skill building, and practical steps the client can use between meetings. Danielle frames treatment as a collaborative process and adapts techniques to the individual rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.
Across her career she has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma from intimate partner violence and child abuse, substance misuse, OCD, and mood disorders. She also addresses issues related to abandonment, adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, and communication problems.
Danielle is licensed in Alabama as LICSW and in South Carolina as LISW-CP, and practices in North Carolina. She offers a supportive environment for people who need direction, tools, and steady guidance through difficult transitions.
How her approaches translate to online care
Danielle commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters most to them and commit to actions that match those values even when emotions are difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing alternative ways of thinking and acting to reduce distress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Danielle treats therapy as a collaboration: she and the client review goals, try approaches, and adjust methods based on what is helpful. That means she will help figure out whether ACT, CBT, DBT skills, or emotionally-focused techniques fit best for a person’s situation.
For practical matters, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also supports using workbook exercises, behavioral experiments, and emotion regulation practices between sessions so work can continue outside meetings.
