Hello! I am Dani, a Registered Psychologist here at Dragonfly.  Welcome, I am glad you found us :)

 

My passion as a Psychologist lies in working with girls and women across all stages of life. From an early age, I noticed how much pressure girls often face to “have it all together.” Whether it was struggling with self-confidence, navigating friendships, or learning to manage big emotions, I saw how many carried silent burdens that weren’t always understood by those around them. As I grew older, I realized these challenges don’t disappear, they simply change as women move through new stages of life.

 

That realization is what inspired me to become a Psychologist, and what eventually led me to practice at Dragonfly. I wanted to create a space where girls and women feel safe to share their stories without judgment, where their experiences are validated, and where they can begin to reconnect with their strength and sense of self.

​

While I work with individuals navigating a wide range of challenges. I specialize in working with anxiety/depression, trauma, body image concerns/disordered eating, infertility/pregnancy loss, and postpartum transitions. My goal is to help you explore your experiences, uncover your strengths, and move toward the changes that feel most meaningful to you.

​

I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Functional Family Therapy, and I use these evidence-based approaches (along with others) while tailoring therapy to fit your unique needs and story.

​

Alongside my therapy practice, I also provide supervision for interns. I love fostering growth and reflection in emerging clinicians, and I bring a supportive, collaborative style to this work.

​

I believe that as a Psychologist it is my role to walk alongside you and support you through whatever challenges you may face.  We all stand together in the same messy, unpredictable, and sometimes chaotic life, and we need a safe place to explore what we are experiencing without judgment or disapproval. My goal in therapy is to help people achieve new awareness and insight into their situations, and through this, be able to gain a new more empowering perspective on whatever it is that you are facing.
