Danielle "Dani" Campbell

Danielle "Dani" Campbell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California. She helps people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and issues related to LGBT identity. Isolation and loneliness are also among the concerns she addresses. Dani frames therapy as a collaborative process and meets people where they are.

With five years of professional experience, Dani emphasizes that clients are the experts on their own lives. She listens for strengths people already use and builds from there. Sessions aim to be practical and focused on what feels achievable for each person.

Dani uses a mix of approaches to match individual needs. She draws on client-centered work to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

For people processing trauma, Dani includes EMDR to help reduce distress linked to painful memories. She also integrates mindfulness practices to support stress reduction and better sleep habits. The Gottman Method appears in her toolkit for people wanting concrete skills for improving relationship interactions.

She keeps language plain and sessions straightforward. Expect an approach that focuses on goals, skills you can try between meetings, and regular check-ins about what is or isn’t helping. Dani invites clients to bring their real-life concerns and works alongside them to find clearer paths forward.

How these approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. Online sessions using this approach still prioritize a respectful, nonjudgmental tone and aim to make the client feel heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches specific skills to spot and change thought and behavior patterns. In remote sessions CBT can include worksheets, behavior tracking, and short experiments to try between meetings.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used for processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional impact. When offered remotely, EMDR sessions involve guided techniques the therapist and client practice together and plan carefully for pacing and aftercare.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences. Together they decide whether a skills-based plan, trauma-focused work, or a more exploratory, client-centered path fits best. This is a collaborative process and may change as needs shift.

The original biography does not list which session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use phone-only meetings if bandwidth is low or save video for sessions that benefit from seeing facial cues.
