About Daniella

Dr. Daniella Jackson is a licensed mental health counselor and a Ph.D. in Psychology who has devoted decades to supporting individuals, couples, and families impacted by addiction and related challenges. She has worked with adolescents, their families, and adults with addiction and dual disorders for 23 years and has spent nineteen of those years providing direct care to adults facing addiction, anger management, and self-management concerns. For the past 11 years she has been a Licensed Mental Health Counselor practicing in Florida, combining clinical training with extensive hands-on experience.

Her work centers on helping people navigate substance and behavioral addictions - including alcohol, illicit substances, medication misuse, gambling, and technology-related problems - as well as the ripple effects these struggles have on partners and family members. She recognizes that loved ones often face grief, feelings of powerlessness, depression, anxiety, and other emotional fallout, and she has long made supporting family members a professional passion. Her therapeutic toolkit draws from cognitive-behavioral methods, humanistic and Rogerian principles, and positive psychology techniques to help clients rebuild control, strengthen coping skills, and restore hope.

Originally from Brazil, Dr. Jackson has lived in the United States for 30 years and is a proud American citizen. Outside of her clinical work she enjoys meditation, walking, and time with animals. She brings compassion and practical experience to her practice and looks forward to assisting those ready to make meaningful changes in their lives.

Integrating Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Recovery

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and learn practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful actions; it is often used to support coping with stress, anxiety, and persistent challenges. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relationship patterns influence emotions and behaviors, making it useful for relationship concerns, attachment issues, and healing from abandonment or family-related trauma. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and building new problem-solving and coping skills, which can be applied to anxiety, depression, addiction-related behaviors, and anger management.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dr. Jackson works with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and she tailors methods from these therapies to form a personalized plan rather than relying on a single technique.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls or phone conversations, or continued through live chat and text-based messaging when that format better fits a person’s life. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions around work, caregiving, or other commitments and allow therapists and licensed professionals to provide consistent care across different situations and stages of recovery.
