She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, trauma, parenting challenges, self-esteem struggles, ADHD, and related concerns.

Dannette aims to help people take small steps toward a more fulfilling life. She centers work on building trust so clients can try new ways of coping.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on everyday problems and realistic changes rather than only theory. She listens for strengths clients already have and helps them use those strengths to solve immediate problems. Sessions are tailored to each person.
Dannette adapts her approach to match a client's goals, background, and pace. She also pays attention to things that come up between sessions and brings useful ideas back into the work together. Many people seek her help for parenting worries, family problems, abandonment concerns, and issues that affect young adults and women.
She also supports people facing compassion fatigue and problems with impulsivity. Her work includes attention to faith concerns when clients want to include that in sessions. Dannette believes therapy is a collaborative process.
She supports clients while they build resilience and practical routines. Her aim is to help people make changes that carry over into daily life, not only during sessions.

Evidence-based approaches and online flexibility
Dannette uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and coping. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking and try new, more balanced ways of reacting to stress and anxiety; it is useful for mood struggles, worry, and low self-esteem. Another approach emphasizes building skills and routines to manage symptoms and impulsivity, which can help with ADHD, anger, and day-to-day functioning.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences and decide on techniques that fit the person. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust methods as progress is made.
Online therapy offers several practical advantages. Video calls let clients see nonverbal cues and keep a session close to an in-person meeting. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a short check-in during a busy day. Live chat or text-based messaging allows ongoing reflection between sessions and can be useful for brief updates, skill practice, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options aim to make consistent support more accessible and easier to fit into daily life.
