Danielle DiGiaimo

Hi, I’m Danielle, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I’m passionate about helping people find healing, balance, and growth through life’s challenges.

I earned my Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) from Stockton University in 2016 and went on to complete my Master of Social Work (MSW) at Fordham University’s Advanced Standing Clinical Track in 2017. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide range of individuals and families across many settings including hospice care, services for the unhoused population, psychiatric hospitals, and, in the most recent years, in public schools as part of the Child Study Team writing IEPs and providing counseling.

These experiences have given me a deep understanding of how emotional, environmental, and social factors impact well-being. In my practice, I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and supported. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each person’s unique story and goals.

Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, or life transitions, I’m here to work alongside you as you build resilience and rediscover your sense of self.

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and rooted in empathy, while also being direct. I believe that healing happens in the context of safe and genuine connection where clients feel truly seen and supported without judgment.

I draw from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions, while always tailoring my work to the individual needs of each client. My clinical background in hospice care, psychiatric settings, and public schools has taught me the importance of meeting people exactly where they are, whether that means providing a space for processing grief, building coping skills, or exploring patterns that may be keeping them stuck.

I view therapy as a partnership. Together, we’ll explore the challenges you’re facing, identify your strengths, and develop strategies that help you move toward greater balance, clarity, and emotional well-being.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and it’s normal to feel hopeful, nervous, or unsure of what to expect. My goal for our first session is to create a welcoming, comfortable space where you can begin to share your story at your own pace.

During our first meeting, we’ll talk about what brings you to therapy and what you hope to gain from the process. I’ll ask some questions to get a better sense of your background, current challenges, and goals, but there’s no pressure to share more than you’re ready to.

Together, we’ll start to outline what therapy might look like for you whether that’s identifying focus areas, or creating a space to process and reflect. By the end of our first session, my hope is that you’ll feel heard, supported, and have a clearer sense of how we can work together moving forward.
