Hi, I’m Daniele, and I’m so glad you’re here. It’s not always easy to navigate all the moving pieces of life, but you don’t have to do it on your own. My role is to walk alongside you as you explore, heal, and grow in a way that feels true to you.

As a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing in California, I create a space where all of your feelings, experiences, and challenges are welcome. My approach is rooted in warmth, patience, and deep empathy, ensuring you feel truly seen and supported. It is creative, collaborative, and tailored to you. I work with pre-teens, teens, and adults, with a special focus on those navigating anxiety, executive functioning challenges, depression, self-esteem, life transitions, ADHD, autism, and parenthood. I’m also a Certified Autism Specialist, dedicated to understanding the unique ways neurodivergence can shape a person’s experience. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you move toward where you want to be.

Beyond one-on-one therapy, I’m passionate about creating spaces for learning, growth, and meaningful change. I enjoy leading workshops and providing consultations, guiding individuals and groups through conversations that are intentional to support positive perspective shifts.

People often ask why I chose this work, and the truth is—it’s personal. I know what it’s like to search for meaning, navigate loss, and work through the weight of past experiences. Those moments shaped me, deepened my empathy, and reinforced my belief in the power of healing. I bring that understanding into my work, creating a space where you can feel safe to explore all parts of who you are.

When I’m not in session or geeking out over new therapy tools, you’ll find me spending time with my daughter, husband, and our lovable Wheaten Terrier. I love a slow morning sipping on coffee, connecting with friends, and catching an underrated comedy show.

Wherever you are on your journey, I’d love to support you on your path to healing and growth.
