Danielle Cristofano-Schwartz

I’m a compassionate social worker who supports adults navigating grief, loss, life transitions, and other difficult experiences. I believe therapy should be a safe, supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward at your own pace.

I am particularly passionate about working with bereaved parents, offering my own experience with loss, as well as my advanced training in the area, including studying with grief expert, David Kessler, to become a Certified Grief Educator.

Tapping into both my personal and professional experience of profound loss, my approach is collaborative and individualized, with a focus on helping clients develop practical tools, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with a sense of hope and finding meaning.

I bring warmth, authenticity, and a sense of humor into my work. I believe therapy can hold space for difficult emotions while also allowing for moments of laughter, connection, and lightness.

During the first session, I want to get a sense of what you are hoping to get out of therapy. Whether it is your first time in therapy or you are looking for the right fit, I'm here for it. We will go at your own pace!
