About Danna

Danna Guillory-Moten is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with five years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, anger, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting challenges, career questions, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. She lists blended family issues among her focus areas. Her sessions are offered in English and she does not take international clients.

Danna uses straightforward, evidence-based methods to address emotional and behavioral concerns. She combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and move toward actions that match their values. She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections.

In a meeting with her, clients can expect practical skills work alongside reflective talk. That might include learning coping strategies for anxiety, practicing communication techniques, or making a step-by-step plan to manage strong emotions. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation when needed.

Danna pays attention to cultural background and life transitions. She helps people who are adjusting to adoption or foster care issues, navigating divorce and separation, or dealing with loyalty conflicts in blended households. Her approach aims to reduce distress and increase everyday functioning.

Sessions are oriented to specific goals and small experiments people can try between meetings. People who want to start are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting through the online therapy options button.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low motivation, and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with small behavioral experiments. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and managing strong emotions.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early patterns of relating affect current relationships and communication. It can be helpful for people who want to change repeated relationship responses or improve trust and connection.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and practical needs, and then recommend or combine methods accordingly. That choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can adjust sessions to focus on skill-building, problem-solving, or processing difficult feelings depending on what helps most.
