About Danielle
Danielle Johnston is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina with 24 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, depression, and challenges such as addiction and trauma.
She uses straightforward, skill-based work to help people manage symptoms and make practical changes. Sessions focus on identifying stressful patterns, practicing new ways of responding, and building small habits that make daily life easier. Danielle draws on therapies that address thoughts, behaviors, and attachment patterns to reduce overwhelm and improve coping.
Her background includes long clinical experience with mood concerns, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, anger, career strain, and ADHD-related difficulties. She also helps people who struggle with abandonment, attachment wounds, codependency, communication problems, and the effects of separation or divorce.
In conversation she aims to be interactive and skills-focused. Expect clear explanations, short exercises to try between sessions, and step-by-step ways to practice new responses to anxiety and stress. Danielle encourages goal-setting so people can track small wins over time.
People come to see her to reduce social fear, manage panic or avoidance, and address the behaviors that keep problems stuck. She blends cognitive and behavioral tools with attention to emotions and relationship patterns to produce practical change.
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and finding direction after life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It teaches practical tools for spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and boost confidence.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape current responses. It can help with intimacy concerns, abandonment fears, and communication problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, history, and what feels most helpful, then use a mix of methods that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process where techniques are adjusted as progress is made.
If you want online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists also use exercises, worksheets, and practice tasks between meetings so progress continues between sessions.
