About Danielle

Danielle Carrasquillo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 12 years of experience. She trained at the University of Central Florida for her Master of Social Work and spent many years practicing in Florida before relocating back to New York. Her background includes military service, work as a hospice social worker, and experience as an oncology social worker. Those roles shaped how she supports people facing hard life moments.

She offers a calm and approachable style in session. Her manner is warm, straightforward, and creative. She listens actively, gives practical feedback, and shares tools people can use between meetings. Sessions often focus on clear steps rather than abstract theory.

Danielle helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and caregiving strain. She also works with issues related to attachment, abandonment, body image, and parenting. Aging and geriatric issues are listed among her additional focus areas and inform her work with life transitions and caregiver stress.

Her clinical approach draws from attachment-based ideas, client-centered principles, cognitive behavioral techniques, existential thinking, and mindfulness. She adapts methods to fit each person's needs and goals rather than following a single plan.

Danielle practices in New York as an LCSW and brings practical experience from hospice and oncology settings. People who prefer a direct but compassionate clinician may find her approach useful. To begin, the site matching process pairs you based on your needs and schedules sessions according to availability.

How Danielle’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes relationships and patterns formed early in life. It helps people notice how past bonds shape current reactions and teaches new ways to relate and feel safer in close connections. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and shifting behaviors. It gives practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change habits that get in the way of daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Danielle collaborates with each person to choose or blend methods that fit their goals and preferences. She checks in about what feels useful and makes adjustments as the work progresses so treatment stays relevant to the client's needs.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue care when life or health circumstances make in-person visits harder. Licensed professionals can adapt mindfulness exercises, CBT worksheets, and attachment-focused conversations to remote sessions to keep therapy practical and goal oriented.
