About Danielle
Danielle Cummings is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Indiana with eight years of experience. She works with adults around relationship difficulties, mood concerns, substance use, grief, parenting stress, and the lingering effects of early family dynamics. Sessions address anxiety, depression, ADHD, and issues tied to family of origin, among other concerns.
Danielle draws on several evidence-informed approaches to help people notice patterns and try new ways of responding. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify values and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about how childhood relationships still affect adult closeness and trust.
Her style is conversational and direct. She listens for recurring roles and expectations a person learned in their family and helps them name those patterns. Work can include practicing new communication skills, managing strong emotions with DBT tools, or making values-based choices using ACT exercises.
Danielle's background includes community mental health work and a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy/Professional Counseling from Johnson University in Knoxville, Tennessee. Her experience includes supporting people across the lifespan and from varied cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds.
Practical issues such as parenting, intimacy-related problems, forgiveness, and coping with life changes are common topics. People who want to understand how their family of origin shapes current relationships may find this focus useful. Sessions aim to be straightforward, with concrete skills and discussion tailored to each person's goals.
How Danielle uses therapy approaches in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values even when feelings are difficult. It can be useful for decisions about relationships, parenting, or life purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. It often includes practical homework and skill practice between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current closeness and trust, and it supports learning new ways of relating to partners and children.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options based on a person's concerns, goals, and preferences and will adjust methods as those needs change. That collaborative process helps decide which strategies to emphasize in sessions.
The original profile does not specify which session formats are offered online, so confirm current options before booking. Practically, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists can assign brief exercises to practice between meetings and focus sessions on skills coaching, tracking progress, or talking through family patterns identified in earlier work.
