Hi, I’m Danielle Poteat. I’m a licensed clinical social worker who helps children, teens, and adults move through trauma, stress, anxiety, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices, but I believe the most meaningful change comes from a genuine, trusting therapeutic relationship. In our work together, you can expect a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to make real, lasting shifts in your life. If you’re looking for a therapist who brings both expertise and authenticity to each session, I’d be honored to support you.
I support children, teens, families, and adults in working through trauma and everyday stress by using evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused CBT, and Motivational Interviewing. I create a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and gain the skills to move forward.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to turn next, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I help clients navigate trauma, life transitions, and everyday stress with compassion and practical support. If you’re ready to feel more grounded and in control, I’d love to connect. Reach out to schedule a consultation—I’m here to help you take the next step.
