About Danielle
Danielle Sanchez is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who trained at Antioch University and brings six years of clinical experience to her practice in California.
Background and approach
Her work has included supporting people with addictions, mood disorders, trauma and abuse, grief, and a wide range of relationship and family concerns. She has experience with complex presentations such as bipolar disorder, process addictions, and personality-related issues, and she uses a blend of therapeutic methods to match each person's needs.
Danielle favors an adaptable, client-centered stance that combines cognitive behavioral strategies, attachment-informed perspectives, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing. She aims to collaborate with clients to identify practical skills for managing stress, anxiety, anger, and impulsivity while attending to deeper themes like abandonment, attachment, and self-esteem.
Her approach balances present-focused techniques with attention to relational patterns that shape current difficulties. Clients who choose Danielle can expect a respectful, goal-oriented partnership focused on improving daily functioning and relationships.
She offers sessions for a broad set of concerns including addiction, eating and process-related struggles, trauma recovery, and coping with life changes, and she works to tailor interventions to each person's circumstances and preferences.
Therapeutic approaches and flexible online sessions
Danielle uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete skills for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and impulsive behaviors. CBT emphasizes practical exercises and goal-oriented strategies to change how thoughts and behaviors interact.She also draws on attachment-based therapy to explore how early and current relationship patterns affect emotional responses and interpersonal difficulties. This perspective can be useful for resolving abandonment, codependency, and repeated relationship struggles by strengthening awareness of relational needs and patterns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Danielle discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts methods over time so the work fits the client’s situation and values. She combines insight-oriented perspectives with skills-based tools to support both immediate coping and longer-term change.
Online therapy offers practical benefits through multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options provide flexibility for scheduling, allow steady access from different locations within California, and make it easier to maintain continuity of care when life circumstances change.
