Danielle Carrasquillo, LCSW

Danielle Carrasquillo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with twelve years of professional experience who blends clinical training with a rich range of life experiences. A native New Yorker who spent 17 years living in Florida, she earned a Bachelor of Science in Occupational Education from Wayland Baptist University in 2009 and a Master of Social Work from the University of Central Florida in 2013. She received her clinical license in Florida before returning to New York City to continue her practice.

Her background includes service in the US Army and time as a military spouse, experiences that informed her work with veterans and military families. Danielle has served as a Hospice Social Worker providing end of life care to individuals, caregivers, and families, and later worked as an Oncology Social Worker offering emotional and spiritual support to people diagnosed with cancer. Those roles shaped her approach to supporting people through loss, chronic illness, and major life transitions.

In private practice Danielle offers remote mental health services and maintains ongoing professional development through conferences, workshops, consultation, and review of evidence-based research. Her therapeutic style is warm and inviting, relaxed and compassionate yet direct. She draws on a variety of modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic work, Internal Family Systems, and mindfulness, collaborating with clients through active listening, clear feedback, and practical tools. Danielle works with concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting and family challenges, grief and survivorship, gender identity, trauma, and life transitions, and she partners with people seeking insight and change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Danielle commonly integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her work. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and can help with intimacy, trust, and abandonment concerns. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration to support self-understanding and personal growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, offering practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Danielle works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting strategies over time so therapy reflects what is most helpful for the individual.

Online therapy with Danielle is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, family, or health needs and allow people to engage in therapy from their own environment while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
