About Danielle
Danielle (Danni) Helms helps people manage ADHD concerns along with anxiety, depression, grief, and addiction-related struggles. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in South Carolina. Danni writes in a direct, respectful way and focuses on practical steps you can use right away.
She keeps sessions centered on the person's goals and lived experience. Conversations focus on what is most pressing, then move toward skills and small changes that fit daily life.
Background and approach
She uses straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness to reduce overwhelming thoughts and improve coping. Danni also draws on dialectical behavior ideas to help people manage strong emotions and improve relationships with themselves and others. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants support finding momentum or changing habits.
Her client-centered stance means she adapts pacing and focus to each person's needs. She has nine years of experience across settings and with a range of concerns including trauma, anger, eating issues, parenting stress, and codependency. Danni emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every conversation.
Her approach aims to empower people to make realistic changes and feel more capable in daily life. To begin, she asks about what matters most to you and then builds a plan together. Sessions blend talk, practical strategies, and simple exercises to practice between meetings.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Client-centered therapy places the person's needs at the center and emphasizes listening, empathy, and working at a comfortable pace. It helps when someone wants a therapist who adjusts to their priorities rather than following a rigid plan. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related difficulties. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening relationships through clear, practical exercises.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they pick strategies and adjust them over time so the plan fits day-to-day life and personal values.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people see nonverbal cues and work through exercises face to face. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support short check-ins, homework review, or ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats provide flexibility and multiple ways to work toward goals.
