About Danielle
Danielle Patterson is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Arkansas with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with adults and teens on concerns such as trauma, depression, anxiety, substance use, self-esteem, and body image. Her practice also addresses family of origin issues and related patterns that continue to affect current relationships.
Patterson’s approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills. She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. Sessions focus on practical skills, emotional regulation, and processing difficult memories when appropriate.
In a typical session she helps people name what is happening, notice unhelpful patterns, and practice new ways of responding. That might mean learning coping skills from DBT, testing thoughts with CBT techniques, or using EMDR to work with past experiences that keep showing up in day-to-day life.
Her training includes a counseling degree from John Brown University in Siloam Springs, Arkansas. Danielle combines structured skills work with a client-centered way of working that lets each person set goals and move at their own speed.
People who come for work on addictions, workplace stress, social anxiety, grief around abandonment, or women’s concerns often leave with clearer steps to try between sessions. She also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue and life transitions who want concrete strategies to manage stress and rebuild confidence.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people set their own goals. Online sessions using this approach involve reflective discussion and collaborative planning to identify small, practical steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches skills to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; in online sessions that can include guided exercises, thought records, and homework to practice between meetings. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to process distressing memories; when EMDR is included, the therapist explains the steps and adapts techniques to work in a remote setting when appropriate.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and then try tools that fit those aims. That collaborative process helps decide whether more skills-based CBT or DBT work, or trauma-focused EMDR, is the best next step.
Confirm the therapist's current session formats before booking since specific formats were not listed in the original profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare, or travel. They also let people use shorter check-ins when time is limited, choose audio-only when bandwidth is low, or keep appointments without commuting. Those practical benefits help therapy fit into day-to-day life while the therapist and client focus on progress together.
