Danielle Carrasquillo , LCSW

Danielle Carrasquillo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of clinical experience supporting people through major life challenges and transitions. A native New Yorker who spent 17 years living in Florida, she earned licensure in that state and has since relocated to New York City. Her professional background includes service in the US Army and time as a military spouse, experiences that informed a long-standing commitment to serving military families. She also worked as a Hospice Social Worker and later as an Oncology Social Worker, roles that deepened her skills in providing emotional and spiritual support to people facing serious illness and to their caregivers.

Danielle completed a Bachelor of Science in Occupational Education at Wayland Baptist University in 2009 and earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Central Florida in 2013. She continues professional development through conferences, workshops, consultation, and review of evidence-based literature. In private practice she offers remote mental health services and draws on a range of treatment methods to meet individual needs.

Her therapeutic style is warm and inviting, relaxed yet compassionate and direct. She values a creative element in treatment and uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic approaches, Internal Family Systems, and mindfulness practices. Danielle collaborates with clients through active listening, thoughtful feedback, and practical strategies to help address anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief and loss, parenting and family issues, trauma and survivorship, and other life stressors.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Danielle Carrasquillo integrates evidence-based methods into online work to address a range of concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of closeness and trust; it helps people who struggle with intimacy, abandonment fears, or repeating relationship difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where the therapist follows the client's lead to build insight and self-direction - it is useful for clients seeking greater self-understanding and empowerment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) concentrates on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Danielle works with each person to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time based on progress and feedback. This partnership helps shape a plan that feels both meaningful and workable.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, mobility limits, or geographic constraints. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, try different session formats, and access licensed professionals from wherever a client is located within the therapist's service area.
