About Danielle
Danielle Johnston helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. She also supports those dealing with trauma, addiction, grief, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. Danielle practices in South Carolina and brings 24 years of experience to each session.

Background and approach
Danielle keeps things collaborative. Clients set goals and she offers short, doable exercises to practice between meetings. She aims to help people feel heard, more in control, and less overwhelmed by daily stressors.
Her work often centers on attachment issues, abandonment wounds, and intimacy-related struggles. She also addresses eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, career stress, and co-occurring concerns such as ADHD or bipolar symptoms. The focus is on practical steps to reduce distress and build healthier patterns.
Therapy may include talk-based strategies, skills training, and tools to regulate the nervous system. Danielle adapts sessions to each person’s needs and reviews progress together. People seeking coaching on life purpose, relationship communication, or recovery from substance use can expect structured, goal-focused conversations.

Online support
How attachment work and skills translate to online therapy
Attachment-based therapy looks at how early patterns shape current relationships and emotional reactions, and it helps people build safer, more dependable ways of relating. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values-based action and learning to live with difficult feelings instead of fighting them, which can help with anxiety and depression. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, useful for mood, sleep, and coping with cravings.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person and decide together which methods match their goals and preferences. That collaborative process can shift over time as needs change.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice and emotional work, phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or be used when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging supports brief updates or ongoing coaching between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and daily life while still using attachment-informed and skills-based methods.
