Danielle Stivers, LCPC

Danielle Stivers is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) in Maryland with 12 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, addiction, career strain, and relationship concerns including jealousy. Danielle aims to make the first step feel manageable and supportive for anyone ready to try therapy.

Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. She builds a calm space where clients can talk through hard feelings without judgment. Conversations often include practical steps to handle day-to-day stress and to improve mood and confidence.

Danielle also brings a lifestyle perspective to her work. She works as a nutrition coach and personal trainer alongside therapy. That background shapes how she talks about routines, exercise, and eating habits as part of mental health care.

In sessions she uses Client-Centered methods to follow what matters most to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to notice and change unhelpful thinking. Solution-Focused techniques help set short-term goals and track progress.

Her style is active and collaborative. Clients who like concrete strategies and a focus on practical change may find this approach useful. Danielle supports people who want to combine conversations about feelings with changes in daily habits like movement and nutrition.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. In online sessions this looks like the therapist reflecting back concerns, asking clarifying questions, and centering the client's priorities to shape each meeting.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice patterns in thoughts and behaviors and then try small experiments to change them. Online work can include brief homework, tracking moods, and practicing new skills between meetings to manage anxiety, depression, or relationship worries like jealousy.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes clear, short-term goals and practical steps. In remote sessions the therapist and client identify one or two small changes and measure progress over a few meetings.

Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The therapist will talk about goals, preferences, and daily routines, and then suggest methods most likely to help. That plan can be adjusted as work proceeds so it remains tailored to the client's needs.

Confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and making it easier to coordinate around work, caregiving, or exercise routines.
