About Danielle

Danielle Mascarelli is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in New York who draws on cognitive behavioral therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness techniques to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors.

Background and approach

She brings six years of clinical experience working with a range of concerns, including panic, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and challenges around self-esteem and life transitions. Danielle emphasizes practical skills and collaborative goal-setting to help clients identify barriers and build strategies that feel achievable.

Her practice also attends to relational and identity-related issues such as attachment patterns, communication difficulties, body image, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose and money management. Motivational interviewing and narrative therapy inform her approach when exploring motivation for change and reframing personal stories.

Danielle aims to offer a warm, nonjudgmental environment where clients can develop tools for coping, strengthen self-love, and work toward meaningful, sustainable change.

Online Approaches That Support Change and Coping

Danielle uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors; this approach often supports work on anxiety, panic, mood challenges, and practical coping skills. She also incorporates client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening, empathy, and respect so clients can explore goals at their own pace and feel heard.

Mindfulness therapy is woven into sessions to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, which can be helpful for stress, rumination, and managing strong emotions. Together these approaches offer both structured skill-building and a compassionate space for reflection, and Danielle collaborates with clients to determine which combination best fits their needs and goals.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, practice skills between sessions, and access support from wherever the client is located within the therapist's service area.
