About Daniella

I am passionate about engaging with others to help share, learn, and connect. It is a privilege for me to have been able to create a varied work life that allows me to share my curiosity, compassion, knowledge, and skills with others to help them to then help themselves. 

​

I provide assessment and therapy to adults in private practice and have a special interest in trauma processing. I am also very passionate about contributing to the field of clinical psychology.    I provide clinical supervision, workshops, and training to psychologists and mental health teams, and I teach in clinical psychology and contribute to research to further our understanding of the human experience.

​

Outside of work, I enjoy painting and yoga, and love to spend time with family and friends and in nature (especially at the beach).
