More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 18 State: Pennsylvania

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both Pennsylvania and Maine and have been working with clients struggling with mental health issues for over 18 years! I have worked with many different populations over the years and specialize in treating individuals with depression, anxiety, stress issues, aging issues, and other life changes! I also have worked as a hospice social worker and have run grief and loss, support groups!

My counseling style is compassionate and warm, and I believe in treating everyone with respect! I also focus more on a collaborative style which allows you to be in control of the pace and focus of your sessions, while also offering feedback and alternative ways of thinking and problem-solving. I tend to use several approaches while working with individuals, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and problem-solving approaches. I believe that every individual can make changes and their lives and I aim to empower them to meet those goals!

Therapy can be a big step for individuals and change can be scary, but the results are very rewarding!

I offer video, phone, and live chat as options for our sessions and I can be flexible to meet the hours that you need for your busy schedule so that sessions do not have to be an added stressor to your life.

I look forward to working with you and helping you to live the life that you deserve and that you desire!

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Danielle has been a huge help with my mental health issues.

Wonderful person to talk with! So helpful and supportive!

Danielle is amazing. I’m so grateful for her, her quick responses and her ability to help me get where I have to go.

Danielle is the nicest, funniest, therapist and I am SO lucky to have been matched with her. She's helped me conquer a lot of anxiety and fears and I can't wait to work with her more and become a better version of me :)

Danielle is great! This is my first experience with therapy and I would recommend her to any of my friends. She’s been very communicative and responsive to my messages. When we have our video chats it’s like I’m talking to a friend. She’s very open minded and I’m not nervous to share what’s been going on in my week with her.

Danielle has been a wonderful support to me. She's so sweet and kind, I immediately felt comfortable talking with her. Danielle is also super flexible and knowledgeable. She become such a huge help to me and I actually look forward to my therapy sessions now.

Being new to therapy, Danielle is comforting and easy to talk to. I feel like she listens and provides supportive and relevant feedback. Make your own judgement, she is worth the time.

I find better help and my therapist very helpful! And the fact that I can do it from home makes it very convenient! I was matched with a therapist that is a great fit right from the start!

Although I haven’t met with Danielle more than once, from the very beginning, I felt as though she understood me she was very open. She asked questions and she was willing to work with me and I appreciate that.

I have recommended to many people!

She is a kind and supportive therapist. She really listens to what you have to say and give great advice. She great with responding to messages.

I had a therapist a few years ago that was amazing & I never thought anyone else would be as good as her. I was wrong! Danielle Allen has exceeded my expectations & then some. Even though we only message through the app I feel like I can tell her anything and she knows me pretty well. I would like to be able to talk on the phone or video chat, but I understand her time constrictions. She has helped me so much over the past few months I don’t even know how to thank her enough.

Danielle keeps me going on some of my hardest days. When I feel like I'm lost, she helps me find myself again.

Danielle is warm and compassionate. She provided me with a judgment free space to talk through some things that i have carried around with me for many years. She has helped me realize my worth, and supported me through difficult dilemmas in my life. She also provided me with weekly thought provoking resources and journal prompts tuned to topics that I am looking to work on. I would 100% recommend her to anyone who is working on themselves, and looking yo use therapy as a tool to self betterment and social betterment.

I love the progress I have made with her.

She was amazing!! Nothing against her I just had another therapist and schedule was way too Busy!

I am so thankful I met Danielle. She is kind, compassionate, and really listens to me. She has gone out of her way to send me plenty of resources that have helped me. She carefully makes suggestions and chooses resources that are directly related to my needs, not just general ways to deal with anxiety. She responds quickly to any questions or concerns.

Danielle is incredibly supportive and kind. I'm so thankful she's my therapist!

Danielle Allen is very sweet and friendly. She is easy to talk to, and listens intently before offering advice. Talking to her is like talking to a good friend, she is always happy to help!

Danielle is great. Our sessions are helpful and I feel like I’m talking to a friend.

Danielle is so kind and really listens to me. She helps me comes to realization that are gam-changing and that I would have never been able to get to on my own.

Amazing lady!

Danielle is amazing! She and I seemed to click as soon as I met her. I very much look forward to our sessions! She’s a wonderful listener and gives the best guidance! I’m glad she’s in my corner and cheering me on to being a better version of myself!

I'm thankful for Danielle as she is always ready to listen to me and she gives great advice and support!!

She’s great!

She really takes her time to explain things and listens to you. I really enjoy her approach to situations and issues. She has a skill to engage when she listens . Very respectable and provides the type of confidence I need to grow.

Danielle goes above and beyond for her clients. She is kind, gentle, honest and she truly cares for her clients . I would highly recommend her!

She is very kind and caring. Puts in a lot of effort and truly makes me feel cared about.

As someone new to counseling in general, I love my sessions with Danielle. She does a wonderful job supplying tools for me to use outside our live sessions so that I can explore on my own schedule. She is an active listener during our live sessions asks great questions to prompt our talks!

Danielle is a smart, compassionate, insightful and caring therapist. She is friendly and kind and she really listens. She makes herself available beyond what I would have expected and always offers not only things to think about but actual suggestions for things that I can do right now to work on my goals. She offers support when I need it and goes above and beyond anything I have ever experienced with any other therapist. I feel very fortunate to have been matched with Danielle!

Danielle is very attentive and on top of my feelings and understanding what I need to work on

Danielle is always there to listen and help me. Just knowing she's right there, helps me to feel calmer when I get upset.

To say it all in a few words, I didn't know what a good therapist was like until we started our sessions together. She is fun, asks the right questions, engaging, and everything else you'd want from a therapist. Highly recommend her services!

Danielle has a knack for tuning into the main triggers of the issue and confronting it or finding new ways to address them and how to manage the stress/anxiety from whatever that may be! I appreciate that about her!

Danielle has been great so far, we haven't been talking long but from what we have it's been a great experience!

I have just started BetterHelp not that long ago and so far she has been amazing help. It’s always good to have someone I can message for advice when I need it. She has been a great support and I’m excited to get the help I need through her.

Though I have only been working with Danielle for two weeks now - I can already see and feel a difference in my well-being. She listens without judgment or bias and provides great worksheets and journal prompts for me to work on by myself. I am an introvert and have difficulty letting people know when I am suffering and through the worksheets and journal prompts I am able to express myself in ways I didn’t think possible. I look forward to continuing our therapist / client relationship together !!

Danielle has been very understanding and kind. She listens and offers support when I need it. She's been very helpful!

Danielle has been great. We do video conferences weekly, but I also like to send a message when feeling something intensely between sessions and she replies with helpful advice and sometimes pertinent readings.
