About Danielle
Danielle Cummings is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Indiana with eight years of clinical experience. She approaches therapy as a collaborative journey, asking clients to bring their stories and goals while she sits alongside them as a thoughtful partner. Danielle draws on empathy, curiosity, and practical methods to help people navigate hard moments and long-standing patterns.
Her work combines evidence-informed techniques with a warm, straightforward style.
Background and approach
Sessions often blend Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with mindfulness and acceptance strategies. She also uses attachment-focused ideas to help people understand relationship patterns and emotional responses. Danielle has worked in community mental health settings and has supported people across a wide age range.
That background gives her experience addressing concerns from mood and anxiety symptoms to addictions and grief. She takes time to learn each person’s history and priorities before shaping a plan together. Parents will find Danielle comfortable discussing the challenges of raising children and managing family stress.
She helps parents talk through communication problems, behavior concerns, and finding balance during life transitions. Her approach is practical and grounded in everyday life demands. Outside of work she values family life, long-term partnership, and time outdoors.
Those personal interests inform a down-to-earth, relatable manner in sessions. Danielle invites people who are ready to reflect and make changes to take a first step toward clearer direction and greater emotional balance.

How her approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then take values-driven action; it can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections and emotion regulation, which can help with intimacy, parenting struggles, and relationship conflict. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry and low mood.Choosing the best approach is a team effort. The therapist will listen to your goals and priorities, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. That collaborative process means methods can change over time to meet changing needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues matter and for deeper conversation. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging work well for quick check-ins, brief coping skills practice, or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules and to keep momentum during life changes.
