Daniela Izatt, LCSW

Daniela Izatt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who supports children, teens, and adults navigating challenges related to culture, faith, identity, and mental health. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress and burnout, major life transitions, grief and loss, hopelessness and thoughts of suicide, as well as those in addiction recovery. Daniela also addresses the effects of trauma, shame, and negative self-beliefs while helping clients explore meaning, life purpose, and self-love.

In addition to individual work, Daniela assists couples and families in strengthening relationships through improved communication, clearer boundaries, and enhanced parenting skills. Her background includes experience in school-based mental health, substance use treatment, crisis intervention, and work with veterans and active-duty service members. These settings have shaped a practical, compassionate approach to treatment.

Her clinical practice is guided by several evidence-based techniques, including EMDR for trauma processing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to build psychological flexibility, Family Systems Therapy to address relational patterns, Play Therapy for younger clients, Solution-Focused and Emotion-Focused interventions, and Narrative Therapy to reshape personal stories. Daniela finds inspiration in people’s resilience and is committed to supporting growth and wellbeing at every stage of life.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Support

Daniela draws on proven therapeutic approaches that translate well to online formats. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) helps clients process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional intensity through structured phases of treatment, often supporting recovery from past trauma and persistent distress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on building psychological flexibility by helping people clarify values, accept difficult thoughts and feelings, and commit to meaningful actions that align with their goals. Family Systems Therapy looks at relationship patterns and communication within families, working to shift dynamics that contribute to conflict, isolation, or repeated problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Daniela collaborates with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions over time so treatment remains practical and responsive.

Online therapy with Daniela is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexible options for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from home or work and to continue care during life transitions or busy periods.
