About Danielle Whiteside

Danielle Whiteside is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who offers a supportive space for reflection, healing, and meaningful change in personal life, relationships, and career. She acknowledges that some seasons of life feel steady while others can be overwhelming or uncertain, and she frames therapy as an opportunity to slow down, gain perspective, and work toward lasting, realistic change.

Working from a relational, strengths-based orientation, Danielle helps clients examine recurring patterns, improve communication skills, and develop healthier connections with others. She provides services to individuals and couples facing relationship challenges, premarital and marital concerns, trauma, abandonment, and experiences related to foster care or adoption. Danielle also supports clients in increasing identity awareness using tools such as the Enneagram to better understand triggers and emotional responses.

Her aim is to create a nonjudgmental environment where clients can lower their guard and begin the work of healing. Sessions emphasize building stability, fostering insight, and setting practical goals that support meaningful growth. Danielle welcomes clients as they are and guides collaborative steps toward greater balance and connection.
