About Danielle
Danielle Diggs is a Maryland-based therapist who blends client-centered work with practical cognitive behavioral tools. She holds an MD and is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC). She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions, and offers support around parenting concerns and relationship stress.

Background and approach
Danielle has eight years of professional experience working with a range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and issues related to sexual orientation. She uses client-centered methods to build a collaborative space and applies cognitive behavioral techniques to teach coping skills and change unhelpful thinking.
Typical sessions include talking through current problems, practicing new ways to respond, and setting short-term goals to track progress. Parents who feel overwhelmed can expect concrete strategies for handling daily stressors and improving communication patterns. She asks clients to be active partners in the work and to try out tools between meetings.
The approach balances empathy with practical steps so people can notice change in daily life.

How client-centered and CBT work online
The client-centered approach focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. It helps people feel heard and helps guide conversations toward the goals that matter most to them.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and stress. It teaches practical tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts, build new habits, and manage symptoms like anxiety or low mood.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences, trying different techniques and adjusting along the way.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for fuller conversations and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can suit quick check-ins or brief skill practice. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, parenting, and daily life while keeping the work focused and practical.
