About Danielle
Danielle Simon is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) practicing in Massachusetts with 12 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with addiction, trauma, mood concerns such as bipolar disorder and depression, anxiety, and self-esteem. Danielle aims to create a respectful, sensitive space for people to start talking and to take the first steps toward change.
She uses a straightforward, individualized approach. Sessions center on the concerns you bring, and therapy is shaped to fit your needs and goals.
How Danielle works
Danielle listens for what matters most and helps people develop practical coping tools they can use outside sessions. Her background includes work supporting people through grief, intimate life changes, and challenges around eating, anger, and isolation. She also has experience with panic, post-traumatic stress, personality-related issues, and substance-related problems.
That range means she can draw on different ways to help when situations overlap. Danielle emphasizes clear collaboration. She explains options, checks in about what is working, and adjusts the plan when needed.
Her style is calm and direct, aimed at reducing overwhelm and building skills. People meet her for short-term problem-focused work or longer-term support to steady mood and rebuild confidence. She offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

Approaches and online care that fit your life
Danielle draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on real problems and practical skills. One approach helps people process trauma by gradually addressing painful memories and grounding in the present so symptoms like panic and hypervigilance become easier to manage. Another approach targets mood regulation and bipolar symptoms by teaching routine-building, mood tracking, and concrete behavioral strategies to reduce extremes and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Danielle collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She checks in regularly and adjusts methods when something isn’t helpful so the plan stays relevant and doable.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video works well for in-depth conversations and visual cues, phone calls are low-bandwidth and easier on the go, live chat can support shorter check-ins, and text messaging helps with quick coping reminders or brief updates between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, caregiving, or travel.
