Danielle Carrasquillo , LCSW

Danielle Carrasquillo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of professional experience. A native New Yorker who lived for 17 years in Florida, she served in the US Army and also spent time as a military spouse, experiences that shaped her understanding of relocation, family dynamics, and military life. After relocating to New York City, she continued her clinical work while expanding her practice to include remote mental health services.

Her clinical background includes roles as a Hospice Social Worker and an Oncology Social Worker, positions in which she provided emotional and spiritual support to individuals, caregivers, and families facing serious illness. Those roles were formative and continue to inform her approach to grief, loss, survivorship, and caregiving challenges.

Danielle 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 maintains professional development through conferences, workshops, reading peer-reviewed research, consulting with colleagues, and ongoing study of evidence-based practices.

Her therapeutic style is warm and inviting, relaxed and compassionate yet direct. She brings a creative sensibility to clinical work and integrates a range of modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic therapy, Internal Family Systems, and mindfulness. Danielle collaborates with clients through active listening, thoughtful feedback, and practical tools that can be used in the moment. She works with adults on issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting, sex and intimacy, gender identity, grief and loss, divorce and separation, trauma and survivorship, and personal insight, and she offers support aimed at helping people move toward their goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Danielle draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and try practical strategies that reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problem-solving challenges.

She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy, which teaches present-focused awareness and simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase emotional regulation. Mindfulness can be helpful for stress management, rumination, and coping with strong emotions.

Attachment-Based Therapy informs her work with relationship and family dynamics, focusing on how early and current attachment patterns influence connection, trust, and intimacy. This approach can support people working on communication, closeness, boundaries, and healing from relational wounds.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Danielle partners with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She works collaboratively with clients to adapt techniques and track what is most useful over time.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing people to access licensed professionals from their home, work, or while traveling. This range of options can make regular care easier to schedule and sustain alongside everyday responsibilities.
