Danielle Deramo, LMHC

Danielle Deramo is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, eating concerns, and addiction. She supports those coping with trauma, grief, anger, sleep problems, intimacy struggles, and life changes. Danielle also works with people managing ADHD, bipolar concerns, and relationship or communication problems.

She brings 11 years of clinical experience and practices in New York as an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Her manner is warm and gentle. She aims to meet people with respect and sensitivity, and to create a calm space for honest conversation.

Danielle uses a mix of approaches that include cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and acceptance-based work. She builds each plan around a person’s goals rather than following a fixed script. Sessions focus on practical steps, skills practice, and noticing patterns that get in the way.

People can expect clear, simple explanations of tools and short, manageable goals between sessions. Danielle emphasizes collaborative planning so clients can try changes at a pace that fits their life. She encourages small experiments that lead to clearer choices.

Her work also attends to attachment and relational patterns, looking at how past experiences shape current responses. That helps when anxiety, abandonment concerns, or challenging relationship dynamics are at the center of difficulty.

Danielle invites people to take a first step by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to therapist availability. She supports practical problem solving and emotional coping across a wide range of concerns.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck. It emphasizes identifying personal values and taking small steps toward those values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people recognize how past bonds influence reactions in close relationships and supports building new, more helpful ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose and adjust methods based on goals, needs, and what feels useful. That means trying different tools and checking in together about what helps most.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session options before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day and can reduce commute time. It also allows for brief check-ins when schedules are tight and supports using skills in real-life settings between sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and attachment-based techniques to an online setting so clients practice new responses where they live and work.
