A Licensed Clinical Social Worker with nearly a decade of experience helping women and mothers navigate overwhelm, anxiety, and life transitions.
Before starting my private practice, I spent several years working in intensive community mental health, including serving as an Assistant Director on an Intensive Mobile Treatment (IMT) team. That experience shaped how I show up now - practical, grounded, and focused on helping you feel better in your actual day-to-day life.
I earned my Master of Science in Social Work from Columbia University and am licensed in both Connecticut and New York.
Hi, I'm Danae.
about ME
Who I Work With
I work with high-functioning women and mothers who are used to holding it all together, but are quietly burnt out underneath. Many of my clients come in feeling stretched thin, mentally exhausted, and unsure how to slow things down.
If you're feeling constantly overwhelmed - juggling work, kids, and everything else - and starting to feel anxious, irritable, or just not like yourself anymore, you're not alone.
My Top Specialties include:
• Anxiety
• Overwhelm & Burnout
• Motherhood & Perinatal (Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum)
• Trauma & PTSD
• Life Transitions
• Relationship Challenges
• Grief & Loss
• Stress
• Women's Issues
SERVICES
My approach is warm, collaborative, and insight-oriented. Together, we'll slow things down, gain clarity into patterns that may be holding you back, and help you move toward feeling more grounded, confident, and like yourself again.
I draw from evidence-based approaches - including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, Strength-Based Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy - to create a treatment plan tailored to you. My style is collaborative and action-oriented. We’ll work together to identify what's getting in your way and develop concrete skills to move forward.
In our first session, we'll clarify your goals, explore patterns that may be holding you back, and begin building a clear, tailored plan forward. Clients often leave feeling both understood and with a clearer sense of direction.

FAQ
Yes. I’m currently in-network with Aetna, Anthem, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Carelon Behavioral Health, Cigna, and Evernorth through Headway. I accept a limited number of insurance-based clients to ensure high-quality care for each client. For clients without in-network coverage, I provide detailed superbills that can be submitted to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
