About Danna

Danna Guillory-Moten is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress and anxiety and face other painful life challenges. She focuses on building self-compassion, clearer coping skills, and steadier mood so daily life feels more manageable. Her style is warm and practical, aimed at real change without jargon or pressure.

She works with adults navigating transitions, relationship strain, grief, substance concerns, and parenting stress. Sessions emphasize simple, usable skills to reduce overwhelm and increase choice in stressful moments. Conversations also address self-worth and patterns that get in the way of personal goals.

Danna draws on several evidence-based methods and adapts them to each person. She uses exercises that help notice difficult thoughts, practice new responses, and reconnect with valued goals. Therapy sessions are collaborative and paced to match what someone can manage week to week.

Her background includes five years of clinical practice and licensure in Texas as a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC. That experience informs an approach that balances skill-building with understanding how life history shapes current struggles. She aims to help people feel more stable and more able to move toward what matters to them.

People who choose her often want straightforward tools for anxiety, help after loss or life change, or support managing moods and impulsive behaviors. If a person is looking for a therapist who combines practical strategies with a compassionate ear, Danna offers that blend.

How these approaches shape online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and take steps toward what matters. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and major life changes because it focuses on values and small consistent actions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and behavior change by practicing new responses to old triggers.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time based on results and comfort.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, turn a short break into a focused check-in, or reduce travel time. Therapists help adapt exercises for remote sessions so skills can be practiced between meetings and applied to everyday situations.
