About Danielle

Danielle Sanchez is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who began her clinical work after earning a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University in 2018. She has built six years of experience in outpatient mental health settings. Danielle has spent much of her career supporting people with complex life challenges and mental health concerns in California.

Her background includes working with individuals affected by incarceration, probation, parole, and chronic homelessness. She has helped people re-enter community life and navigate difficult transitions, including supporting women who returned to their families after incarceration.

Danielle works with a wide range of issues such as addiction, depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, grief, relationship and family problems, and self-esteem struggles. She uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people identify what matters to them and what they want to change.

Her approach mixes several methods so sessions match each person’s needs. She draws on attachment-focused ideas to understand important relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice patterns of thought and behavior. Mindfulness skills and motivational interviewing techniques are used when building new habits and coping strategies.

Danielle emphasizes collaboration. She sees clients as the experts on their lives and offers guidance to improve daily functioning and wellbeing. To start, she asks a few questions about concerns and goals and together they plan next steps.

This summary is based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp.

How approach and online care work together

Danielle uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how important relationships shape feelings and behavior. That approach can help when people struggle with trust, abandonment worries, or long-standing relationship patterns.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT is useful for managing low mood, anxiety, and patterns that keep problems going.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Danielle collaborates with each person to decide which methods match their goals and comfort level. Together they try tools, review what helps, and adjust the plan over time.

If you want online options, please confirm the current session formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Different formats also let people choose whether to use video or a quicker audio check-in depending on their energy or bandwidth. Licensed professionals and therapists can adapt exercises, homework, and mindfulness practices to work well in remote sessions.
