Danielle Porch, LPC
Dani (she/her) believes that therapy takes courage, and she is immensely grateful for every client that chooses to walk through their story with her. She believes that a rich life is one where a person can live fully integrated, body mind and spirit, and she works with each individual client to move towards that goal. Dani practices with warmth, mindfulness and a healthy dose of humor. She enjoys working with ages 18 and up, and has a particular interest in working with military members and their families. Dani is a Licensed Professional Counselor and an MSC Level III Psychotherapist.
Dani comes to the counseling world with over 10 years of professional experience working with veterans and their families and personally understands the stressors of military life having grown up an Army brat herself. Although intensely challenging, she has also seen how these stressors can foster tenacity, flexibility, openness and compassion in people. By identifying their strengths and exploring the narrative they tell themselves about their experiences, she believes clients can discover the power they hold to write new chapters in their lives.
Dani graduated with her master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Colorado Christian University. She uses a variety of modalities to best suit the personality and worldview of her clients. Whether Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing or something else altogether, she will help you find the right fit to reach your goals.
Therapy takes courage and she would love nothing more than to meet you on your path and see that bravery rewarded with a renewed sense of purpose, connection and fulfillment in your life. She is a warm and curious clinician who believes in the power of humor and creativity to connect with people. She also believes that therapy is about better understanding your brain-body-spirit connection and learning how you can become a more integrated person. She wants you to live the adventure you are uniquely meant to live.
An introvert at heart, Dani loves to be outside with her big black dog, Baron, eat good food with the people she loves, and cross items off her reading list. Netflix documentaries and repeat viewings of Parks & Rec are always good, too!
