Danielle Allen
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both Pennsylvania and Maine and have been working with clients struggling with mental health issues for over 18 years! I have worked with many different populations over the years and specialize in treating individuals with depression, anxiety, stress issues, aging issues, and other life changes! I also have worked as a hospice social worker and have run grief and loss, support groups!
I enjoy a collaborative approach and expect clients to be an active and engaged participant during sessionsv
.I enjoy working with clients and empowering them to recognize and use their abilities, skills, qualities, and strengths to achieve their goals and come to love the person that they are!
The first session is generally one where we focus on getting to know each other, identifying goals, and also offering the opportunity to ask questions and set up a plan for addressing the client's concerns and struggles.
The best part of being a therapist is the relationship with the client. I truly enjoy working with and empowering people to recognize their strengths and achieve their goals.
Highlights
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
My counseling style is compassionate and warm, and I believe in treating everyone with respect! I also focus more on a collaborative style which allows you to be in control of the pace and focus of your sessions, while also offering feedback and alternative ways of thinking and problem-solving. I tend to use several approaches while working with individuals, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and problem-solving approaches. I believe that every individual can make changes and their lives and I aim to empower them to meet those goals!
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I utilize evidence-based therapies, including:Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy & incorporating many problem-solving, Strengths-Based approaches.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My biggest strengths are showing compassion and understanding to everyone that I work with. The therapy process allows me the opportunity to learn from my client's and their unique experiences while guiding them to use those strengths as they tackle their struggles.
