ACCEPTING NEW MICHIGAN TELETHERAPY CLIENTS AS OF 8/5/26 As a social worker, Danica's approach to therapy is anti-oppressive. She is a straight, cis, straight-size, Filipina Asian American woman who strives to be a better accomplice to all races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, disabilities, body sizes, faiths, and spiritualities. Danica believes in the therapeutic philosophy that life just sucks sometimes; sometimes a client wants a therapist to help it feel less sucky, and other times, they need a therapist to just actually listen to them. She also combines scientific, evidence-based practices and therapy treatments taught at the best social work school and program in the world with the people skills and street smarts from working in a local private practice to starting her own solo practice. She creates and communicates customized treatment plans to each person who walks into her therapy room or, in the case of teletherapy, appears on the computer screen. Her main areas of focus include anxiety (generalized anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, OCD), pregnancy (from infertility to postpartum to grieving due to miscarriage or abortion), and trauma (which not only includes PTSD, but also complex-PTSD/borderline personality disorder and identity-based trauma). Danica's ideal population is from young adults to middle-aged. However, some exceptions can be made for folks a bit younger or older. Please reach out if, after reading her bio, you think you would be a great fit. As a 1.5-generation Filipina-American, she personally understands the intersection of mental health with the Asian diaspora and therefore, encourages Asian-Americans to reach out for mental health services. Danica has recently completed her certificate in Sport Social Work from The University of Michigan in July 2025. Inspired by her long-time favorite self-care activity of endurance running, she noticed a growing trend of young adults turning to running half and full marathons as their new self-care activity, too. She decided to receive more training on how to care for the mental health of athletes from those who have been playing sports since childhood to nontraditional athletes who are just starting to appreciate what their bodies can do. Danica is also a former library social worker trained in bibliotherapy, which can be used as a standalone treatment or as a complement to other therapies to help with any mental health issue. Please check out the website listed to learn more about Danica's experience.

I work with adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or not quite like themselves, often dealing with anxiety, low mood, or a lack of motivation. Many of the people I work with are navigating new life transitions, health concerns, relationship challenges, or stress related to work or school. My style is warm and collaborative, meeting you where you are and working alongside you. I take a holistic approach to therapy, getting to know you as a whole person, not just a set of symptoms. We’ll explore how things like emotions, relationships, physical health, sleep, and daily stressors all interact to affect your wellbeing. I draw on cognitive, behavioral, motivational, and mindfulness-based strategies. Together, we’ll get to the root of what’s contributing to how you’re feeling, build skills you can use in your everyday life, develop healthier ways of responding to difficult thoughts and emotions, and take small, consistent steps toward what matters most to you. It takes courage to reach out, and wherever you’re starting from, you’re welcome here. Therapy with me is a space where you can feel supported, understood, and accepted, while also working toward where you want to be. If you’re feeling stuck, we can work through it together.

Finding joy starts with a single step, and reaching out is one of the bravest steps you can take. My role as your therapist is to guide you toward rediscovering the light within yourself—your joy, your strength, and your unique potential. Together, we’ll create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported, as we gently untangle the patterns and barriers keeping you from living fully. Whether you’re struggling with self-doubt, anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges, I’m here to remind you that healing and growth are possible. Using a strength-based approach rooted in empathy and tailored techniques, I’ll support you as you take intentional steps toward the life you deserve—a life filled with clarity, confidence, and joy.

Getting to know yourself—who you truly are—can be one of the most challenging yet empowering experiences in life, especially if you're someone who’s been told you think too much, feel too much, or just are too much in general. If that sounds like you, then we should definitely talk. Clients often come to me because they’ve been misunderstood or boxed in elsewhere. Many of them are figuring out how to live outside the lines: queer folks, neurodivergent folks, people in non-traditional relationships, or people who just never quite felt “normal,” whatever that means. As a neurodivergent queer therapist, I’m right there with you. With roots in narrative therapy and trauma-informed work, I bring a client-led, conversational approach. I enjoy helping individuals and relationships see and make sense of the ways their pasts show up in their present, especially those navigating formative trauma, major identity or life changes, or relationship patterns that feel stuck on repeat. Therapy is supposed to be the place where you get to show up as your full, messy self without judgment. My job is to help you feel safe and grounded enough to do just that. If you’re ready to take the first step towards finding your way back to yourself, I’d love to walk alongside you. Please reach out for a free consultation!

Before anything else, I prioritize and value the relationship I build with each person I work with and believe that therapy is a unique space where growth and change occurs through a strong, collaborative relationship. As your therapist, you can expect us to explore both your past and present experiences, as I believe our past often shapes how we experience ourselves, our relationships, and the world today. My goal is to help you develop greater self-awareness, authenticity, and curiosity about yourself. Together, we'll explore both your thoughts and emotions to better understand your experiences and identify meaningful ways to move forward. I believe that while there is much about the human experience that we all share, each person's story, identities, and life circumstances are uniquely their own. I see you as the expert on your own life and view therapy as a collaborative process. While you set the direction, I'm here to offer guidance and help us determine where our work can be most meaningful. I consider myself very much a "talk therapist," meaning I believe much of the therapeutic change occurs within the therapy relationship and room itself. I also strive to create a space that feels genuine, relaxed, and approachable. Therapy can absolutely involve difficult emotions, but it can also include laughter and moments of joy along the way.

Being a student can be tough! Balancing classes, friends, and work while adjusting to a new living situation. Maybe even feeling less confident when we never struggled in that area before. Sometimes we don't recognize that we are struggling with anxiety or depression...and that there is help! If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, self-confidence, difficulties with managing emotions, I can help! You don't need to know how therapy works. We will talk and get to know each other, then sort out together the areas where you can grow strengths to match your new experience.

We aim to provide the best possible telepsychiatric care (therapy and medication management) for our patients, wherever they are. We know that self-care is a journey, and the first step towards a fulfilling life begins with recognizing a need to get help. With the advancements in technology, we are able to provide care that is the most convenient for you. That is what makes our mission possible. We strive everyday to ensure that our patients are able to live their best lives.

It is amazing how life can take us in so many different directions? Some roads may be exciting and new, but there are also times when we come across a challenge that may be difficult to handle on our own; we feel unable to deal with it. Counseling can assist in the process of managing one's feelings, challenges and struggles. You do not need to manage this on your own, talking with someone can help with giving you direction, help you understand why you are feeling this way and how to make things better for yourself and /or others around you. I have 9 years of experience with all types of issues including grief and loss, life challenges, LGBTQ+, anxiety, depression, chronic/terminal illness, and a variety of trauma. I utilize techniques that assist each unique individual with the process of addressing any personal challenges and achieving change. You may be feeling hurt, defeated, or lost... counseling can help you understand that you are not alone. Whether healing from your past, coping with situations & issues in the present, or letting go of fears of the future; I am here to listen, help & understand you as an individual, with care & without judgment. If you've gotten this far in my introduction, are still interested and in need of support after the recent tragic events on the MSU campus... please feel free to reach out. I am private pay only but am willing offer several sessions for free and/or sliding scale to help you through this time. I have a variety of times open that I'm happy to share directly with you.

I offer my clients a calm and safe place to work through issues that are holding them back from living their best lives. The issues I most often help clients with are anxiety, trauma, adjustment issues, ADHD, and depression. I offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and Neurofeedback Therapy. I have found EMDR to be an amazing tool that has been so helpful in allowing my clients to work through traumatic events which then leads to less anxiety, less depression, higher productivity, and better sleep. I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to see if we would be a good fit. I look forward to talking with you.

From your first call until you’ve graduated, our team collaborates and uses integrative treatments to put your success, health, and happiness first. We help both body and mind to work through anxiety, trauma, insomnia, burn-out, and perfectionism to find healing and peace through counseling, EMDR therapy, and meditation.
