Danielle Poehlman, LPC, LMHC

Danielle Poehlman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with nine years of clinical experience. She became a therapist after personal losses in her family related to addiction and mental health, and she brings that lived perspective into her work. Danielle takes a motivational, strengths-based approach and aims to create a respectful, collaborative space for people to address hard moments in life.

Danielle uses practical strategies alongside longer conversations to make therapy useful. She helps people with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief and trauma, and mood concerns such as depression and bipolar disorder. She also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy issues, career strain, caregiving stress, and challenges related to ADHD and sleep problems.

Her style leans toward supporting a person’s existing strengths while teaching coping tools. She listens closely, helps set realistic goals, and works together with each person to shape the plan for therapy. Danielle also pays attention to attachment and identity concerns, and she is open to working with people involved in kink and alternative sex culture.

Danielle has a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Florida International University and a master’s degree in mental health counseling from Capella University. She holds licensure as an LPC in South Carolina and an LMHC in Florida. She combines clinical approaches with practical coping skills to help people move forward.

In sessions she focuses on clear steps you can try between meetings. That might include small behavior changes, new ways of talking about problems, or skills to manage overwhelming feelings. She invites people who are facing midlife transitions to talk through choices and rebuild a sense of direction.

How therapy approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust. The therapist follows a person’s lead, reflects what they say, and validates their experience, which helps when someone is facing big life changes or identity questions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses clear exercises and small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and manage mood swings.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches skills for tolerating distress and improving emotional regulation. It is often used when feelings feel overwhelming or when someone needs tools to handle strong reactions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Danielle will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

For online therapy logistics, the original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. The main practical benefit of remote sessions is making therapy easier to fit into a routine - for example, shorter check-ins between busy days, scheduling around work, or avoiding travel time. Different approaches can be adapted to remote meetings so people can learn skills, practice new behaviors, and track progress without changing daily life drastically.
