About Danielle

Danielle Dicentio is a licensed clinical social worker who blends respectful, compassionate care with practical support to help clients navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With three years of professional experience, she emphasizes individualized dialogue and collaborative planning to address concerns such as attachment and abandonment, communication problems, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, impulsivity, and struggles with life purpose and isolation. She frames treatment around each person’s unique circumstances, tailoring goals and methods rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions.

Danielle works with issues that often overlap, including body image, guilt and shame, dissociation, and challenges related to intellectual disability or disruptive mood symptoms, and brings focus to both immediate coping and longer-term growth. Licensed in Wisconsin as an LCSW, she supports clients in exploring practical steps toward more satisfying daily functioning and emotional balance.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Flexible Online Care



Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical skills and emotional processing. Cognitive behavioral approaches help people identify unhelpful thoughts and develop alternative strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Trauma-informed methods center safety, stabilization, and processing of difficult memories to reduce the impact of past abuse or traumatic events. These approaches can be adapted to address executive functioning challenges and ADHD-related concerns by teaching organization, impulse management, and coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Danielle aims to collaborate with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. The therapist works together with clients to set realistic aims, try techniques, and adjust the plan over time so treatment feels responsive and practical.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to attend sessions from home, maintain continuity of care when life is busy, and use brief check-ins or messaging for ongoing support between longer appointments.
