About Danyale
Danyale Johnson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She presents a calm, nonjudgmental presence and aims to make clients comfortable from the first session. Her style is practical and direct, focusing on skills that can be used outside of sessions.
She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Saint Joseph in West Hartford, Connecticut. After time away from school she returned to earn a Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling from Brooklyn College, City University of New York.
Background and approach
Those studies led to a career of over 11 years in clinical work. Over the years she has worked with people facing addictions, bipolar disorder, trauma and abuse, and grief. She also has experience supporting adults with developmental disabilities.
That range has shaped a flexible approach to common problems like low self-esteem, relationship stress, parenting strain, and career transitions. In sessions she uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. She focuses on clear explanations, practical tools, and collaborative goal setting.
Clients can expect guidance, coping strategies, and homework when appropriate. Danyale practices in New York and speaks English. She emphasizes that seeking help is a strong step and that change often starts with small, steady actions.
If someone is ready to address anger, stress, or other concerns, she offers straightforward support to move forward.

How therapeutic methods translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy puts your experience first and focuses on listening and understanding. In online sessions this means time is spent hearing your concerns and reflecting them back so you feel understood and can choose the direction of work.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. In virtual sessions a therapist and client review patterns, try short exercises, and set small between-session tasks to build new habits that reduce symptoms like anger or anxiety.
Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It is useful when motivation is mixed or when someone is thinking about cutting back on substances or changing difficult habits; the therapist asks questions and supports the client in weighing options.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy and happens together. The therapist will talk through goals, try different techniques, and adjust plans based on what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps make sure sessions fit each person’s needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and role practice, phone works when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and text or chat can support frequent updates or quick coaching between sessions. These options make scheduling easier and help people fit care into busy lives.
