Danielle Bonner, LICSW, LISW-CP

Danielle Bonner is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who brings 23 years of experience to relationship and life concerns. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Danielle also supports those managing ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and compassion fatigue. She practices in North Carolina and offers care in English.

Her style is practical, respectful, and interactive. Sessions focus on real problems and doable steps. Danielle combines several approaches to match what each person needs rather than using one fixed method.

Danielle has substantial outpatient experience, and she has led Dialectical Behavior Therapy groups and provided life coaching. Over the years she has helped people with trauma, intimate partner violence, child abuse and neglect, substance concerns, and complicated grief. That background guides how she structures sessions for safety and steady progress.

Therapy typically blends talk with skills practice and goal-setting. Clients learn tools for emotion regulation, clearer communication, and making values-based choices. Danielle aims to help people find routines and strategies that fit into their daily life.

She works collaboratively to build a plan and adjusts it as needs change. People who prefer a straightforward, compassionate approach and concrete skills work may find her method helpful. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule based on the therapist's availability.

How her approaches guide online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that match those values. It is useful for anxiety, life transitions, and getting unstuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting thought patterns and trying new behaviors to change feelings and routines; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and relationship skills through practical exercises and coaching-style practice; it can help with intense emotions and communication challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and daily life, then recommend which methods to try. That choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to practice skills between sessions and to bring real-life situations into conversation. Licensed professionals tailor pacing, homework, and skill work to match each person's schedule and needs.
