Beautiful Journey Counseling

ABOUT DANIELLE
I obtained my Masters of Social Work from Rutgers University and became a New Jersey Licensed Social Worker in 2019. I dedicated 10 years to serving the children and families of New Jersey through my work with the Division of Child Protection & Permanency in various capacities. In my current full-time role, I provide support to surrogates through all of the intricacies of their surrogacy journey, and as a therapist, I feel an immense sense of privilege when someone allows me to be apart of their healing process.

My hobbies outside of therapy include any and all artistic outlets, being outdoors, and connecting with family and friends.

APPROACH TO THERAPY
I am dedicated to challenging and supporting you as you navigate this current season of life. I hope that you will be able to rely on our authentic therapeutic relationship to find the strength and courage to meet the goals that are a priority and meaningful to you. I take on a therapeutic approach that integrates several evidence-based modalities, but together we will create a tailored strategy to your own unique path of healing.

PERINATAL MENTAL HEALTH:
The road to parenthood, and into parenthood is a significant life transition that most assume will occur with perfect execution. Until it doesn’t. Fortunately, you don’t have to navigate these difficult roads alone. I am committed to creating a safe space for you to tell your story, where you can feel supported, and take the necessary steps in order to feel like yourself again.

I have specialized training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International, and a vast knowledge in infertility-related issues such as anxiety and depression, adoption through the foster care system, reproductive medicine, and surrogacy. I am currently in the process of obtaining my Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C).
