About Daniella
Daniella Fernandez is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Washington with 13 years of counseling experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, and depression. Daniella also focuses on attachment issues, body image, communication problems, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation.
Her approach is practical and relational. She listens to how a person explains their difficulty and uses that description to guide sessions. Conversations look at thoughts, patterns in relationships, and everyday habits that keep problems going. Small behavior changes and clearer communication are common next steps.
Daniella draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside attachment-based, emotionally-focused, and client-centered methods. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, track emotional reactions, and pay attention to how past connection patterns affect current relationships. Sessions include reflection, skill practice, and problem-solving tasks to try between meetings.
She emphasizes client choice and collaboration. People set goals and Daniella offers observations and practical ideas to reach them. Meetings are a place to talk through what is working and what to try next.
Her background in family therapy informs how she looks at relationship patterns even when working with individuals. Daniella aims to help people find clearer ways to communicate, manage mood or panic, and rebuild a steadier sense of self. To begin, readers are asked to complete the brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How her approaches translate to online work
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. CBT is practical and often includes tracking thoughts, testing beliefs, and practicing new behaviors to reduce anxiety or low mood.She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early and ongoing relationship patterns shape current reactions. That work emphasizes understanding how connection and communication affect stress, relationship problems, and feelings of isolation.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, try approaches, and adjust based on what helps. Daniella will discuss which methods suit the issues someone brings and suggest homework or skill practice between meetings.
Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins on hectic days, and letting people meet from locations that work for their schedule. Licensed professionals can use online meetings to continue work on thought patterns, relationship communication, and emotion management without changing the basic structure of sessions.
