Dr. Dani Renée

Therapist

Virtual • Connecticut


Hi, I’m Dr. Dani...and I’ll be honest with you from the start: I became a therapist because I believe people deserve a space where they can finally exhale. With over a decade of experience working with individuals, couples, and families, my background spans crisis intervention, family systems, and culturally responsive care.

I have a particular heart for women and couples who are carrying a lot... navigating stress, relationships, and life transitions...and doing it often without anyone really seeing them.

That changes here.

( I currently only provide medication management no individual therapy)

I am a dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over 15 years of experience in healthcare. My background spans primary care, urgent care, and mental health, allowing me to approach each client with a comprehensive understanding of both physical and emotional well-being.

I specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, trauma-related disorders, ADHD, and mood disorders. My practice focuses on providing evidence-based medication management paired with supportive, collaborative care. I believe in meeting clients where they are, empowering them through education, and tailoring treatment plans to their unique needs, preferences, and goals.

My approach is warm, non-judgmental, and holistic. I value building strong therapeutic relationships and creating a safe space where clients can feel heard, understood, and supported.

If you’re looking for compassionate, thorough, and personalized care, I’m here to help you take the next step in your mental health journey.

Janice Rose

Therapist

Virtual • Connecticut


As a mental health counselor and certified professional coach, I focus on helping you move forward and create the life you truly want. With more than 15 years of experience supporting people from all walks of life, I’ve seen how powerful it can be when small, meaningful changes start to show up early in the process. When you can see progress within the first few weeks, it builds motivation and confidence to keep going.

Our work together will center on making those kinds of intentional, practical shifts—so the effort you put in feels directly connected to the changes you notice in your life. I see therapy as a tool to support your growth, not something that has to last forever. My goal is to help you feel more capable, clear, and confident to live life on your own terms, long after our time together.

Growth and change are lifelong journeys, and I’m here to help you take that next meaningful step forward.

Elizabeth Lara

Therapist

Virtual • Connecticut


Hi, I’m Liz! I help clients heal from past trauma and uncover the root of what’s keeping them feeling stuck. Trauma can shape the way you see yourself, others, and the world—often showing up as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or difficulty setting healthy boundaries.

My work focuses on addressing these deeper patterns to support lasting healing and meaningful personal growth. For those who desire it, I also offer the option to integrate Christian faith into the counseling process.

I believe therapy should not only be effective but also feel human and approachable. We’ll roll up our sleeves and do the work together, while also making space for moments of lightness along the way.
