About Dannielle

Dannielle McLean is an LCPC who blends evidence-based therapies to help clients manage stress, anxiety, mood instability, substance use concerns, and ADHD-related challenges. She frames treatment around practical skill building, teaching tools that change unhelpful thought patterns, reduce emotional reactivity, and strengthen coping strategies.

Background and approach

Her work emphasizes motivating steps toward meaningful change and developing realistic, achievable goals to support ongoing recovery and wellbeing. With three years of documented experience, she draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical skills, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to tailor each session to individual needs.

Clients can expect structured practice of relaxation and grounding exercises, strategies to handle cravings and urges, and guidance on building self-compassion. Sessions focus on increasing resilience and maintaining momentum through consistent contact, feedback, and collaborative problem solving.

Practicing in Maine, Dannielle aims to create a supportive space where people can clarify priorities, build healthy routines around sleep and eating, and work through relationship or trauma-related concerns. She encourages clients to view each moment as an opportunity for change and to take gradual, sustainable steps toward the life they want.

Online approaches that teach skills and build motivation

Dannielle uses cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior therapy in online work to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and build concrete skills for emotion regulation. CBT focuses on changing thought and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or ADHD-related difficulties, while DBT emphasizes distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and managing intense emotions.

She also incorporates mindfulness practices to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, and motivational interviewing to explore readiness for change and strengthen commitment to goals. These methods are presented collaboratively so the therapist and client can determine which mix best suits the client’s needs, goals, and preferences rather than relying on a single approach.

Online sessions include video calls, phone consultations, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life or access support from home in Maine. The variety of formats supports consistent contact, practice between sessions, and flexible scheduling so clients can maintain momentum while working toward realistic, achievable change.
