About Danyelle
Danyelle "Dany" Wilson is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in California with 17 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and concerns related to LGBT identity, and she also offers coaching for professionals. Her approach aims to meet each person where they are and respond to immediate needs.
Dany uses practical talking and listening to learn what matters most to each person.
Background and approach
Sessions are meant to feel respectful and straightforward. She shapes conversations and plans around real-life goals and everyday challenges. Her work draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships still affect feelings and behavior.
She combines that with client-centered methods that keep the client’s experience central. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used when people want tools to change patterns of thinking and behavior. Dany also incorporates dialectical behavior therapy skills for managing intense emotions and EMDR for processing traumatic memories when appropriate.
She adapts methods to the person rather than forcing a single model. She has supported people facing issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, dissociation, domestic violence, and complicated grief. Dany addresses guilt, shame, family of origin wounds, hoarding behaviors, and end-of-life counseling needs.
Sessions are offered in English and provided via several online formats to fit different schedules. Dany aims to help clients set realistic steps toward relief and clearer coping strategies.

Online support
Online therapy that blends trauma work and practical skills
Dany uses EMDR to help people process upsetting memories and reduce the emotional charge that follows trauma. EMDR involves guided attention and focused processing to help the brain rework distressing experiences so they feel less overwhelming.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small experiments to change them. CBT gives concrete tools for anxiety, stress, and patterns that interfere with daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early relationships shape current reactions and to develop healthier ways of relating to self and others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they choose or blend methods as needed, checking progress and adjusting the plan.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video works well for deeper therapy and EMDR-style processing, while phone or chat can be easier for quick check-ins or lower bandwidth situations. Text messaging and live chat let people share between sessions and get brief support when needed. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, and other commitments.
