About Me
Hi there! I’m Danielle Baker, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate (LCMHCA) and a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist Associate (LCASA). With a unique blend of creativity, mindfulness, and a holistic approach, I’ve dedicated my career to helping people – especially our brave service members – find their way through life’s toughest challenges and bloom into their best selves.
Education:
- Bachelor of Science (BS) in Sociology
- Master of Science (MS) in Clinical Counseling
Therapeutic Approach:
Imagine therapy as a garden where each session is a chance to plant seeds of change, water them with mindfulness, and watch as they grow into personal breakthroughs. My approach combines the best of horticultural therapy, creative arts therapy, and traditional techniques to cultivate a healing space where clients can thrive.
Specialties:
- Horticultural Healing (Using plants and gardening for mental health)
- Artistic Alchemy (Creative Arts Therapy)
- Anchoring in ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)
- Clearing Cognitive Clouds (Cognitive Processing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapies)
- Solving with Solutions (Solution-Focused Therapy)
- Mindful Moments (Mindfulness Practices)
- Balancing Emotions (Dialectical Behavior Therapy)
- Body and Mind Harmony (Somatic Therapy Techniques)
- Service Member Support (Specialized in working with military personnel)
Experience:
From military bases to peaceful gardens, I’ve had the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients. My journey has taken me from supporting service members in high-stress environments to creating serene therapeutic gardens where healing blossoms. Each experience has deepened my commitment to holistic, creative, and personalized therapy.
Personal Philosophy:
Life can be a wild and wonderful adventure, much like a garden. Sometimes, we face weeds and storms, but with the right tools and a bit of nurturing, we can grow through anything. I believe in the power of creativity, the healing potential of nature, and the importance of a holistic approach to well-being. Let’s work together to cultivate a life that’s not just about surviving but thriving.
Fun Facts:
- When I’m not in therapy sessions, you can find me with my feet in the sand, designing sand castles, or practices mindfulness inspired by the ocean.
- I’m a huge fan of yoga and often incorporate gentle movement into my mindfulness practices.
- I enjoy checking out new Netflix series or listening to music.
