Daniele Trevathan, LMHC

Daniele Trevathan is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 15 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and trauma. She also supports people dealing with relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting strain, sleep and eating problems, and mood or impulse-related challenges. Daniele aims to give practical skills so people can handle difficult moments and feel more capable over time.

Her style is direct and collaborative. She offers a calm, non-intrusive space where clients can talk through what’s happening and practice new ways to cope. Sessions focus on building simple skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and reducing impulsive behaviors.

Daniele uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and shift behavior. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR for trauma work, and client-centered principles to keep the work relevant to each person’s goals.

Clients can expect clear tools and short-term strategies alongside longer-term work on self-understanding. Daniele emphasizes mindfulness, problem-solving, and skills practice between sessions. She helps people gain insight into patterns such as attachment wounds, control issues, or family of origin struggles.

Daniele holds a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential and provides services from Florida. Sessions are offered in English and available through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Daniele commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT work online often includes homework, thought records, and concrete behavior changes that can be practiced between sessions.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying values and taking meaningful action even when difficult feelings are present. ACT helps with anxiety, depression, and life transitions by combining mindfulness with committed steps toward goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Daniele collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That might mean starting with skills from DBT or CBT, adding ACT techniques, or using trauma-focused tools when needed.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter, on-the-go check-ins or ongoing coaching-style contact between sessions. These options make it easier to keep momentum while fitting therapy into a busy life.
