Danielle CummingsLMFT

Danielle Cummings is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Indiana with eight years of clinical experience. She approaches therapy as a collaborative journey and invites people to share their story in a calm, steady way. Danielle aims to connect through empathy, curiosity, and practical conversation so people feel heard and seen.

Danielle draws on a mix of familiar tools to help with everyday struggles and deeper wounds. She often uses techniques from cognitive behavioral approaches to untangle unhelpful thinking. She also brings Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people notice what matters most and take steps toward it.

Attachment-based ideas shape how she thinks about close relationships and parenting concerns. Danielle talks with people about patterns that began in childhood and how those patterns show up now. Sessions include straightforward skills, real-world problem solving, and space to process grief or loss.

Her background includes a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy and Professional Counseling from Johnson University in Knoxville, Tennessee. Danielle spent years working in community mental health and has experience supporting people across a wide age range. She says the work can be practical and hopeful, even when it feels hard.

Outside of work she values family time, nature, and travel. She lives with her partner, two children, and three dogs. Danielle welcomes conversations about concerns related to pregnancy and childbirth in the broader context of relationships, mood, and life transitions.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that line up with their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions by shifting focus toward meaningful goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practicing different responses in everyday life. CBT often helps with mood, anxiety, and stress by teaching concrete skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Danielle will talk with each person about goals and preferences and tailor techniques accordingly. That collaborative process helps decide which methods to use and how to pace sessions so they feel useful and manageable.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter focused check-ins when that fits a person's day. It also lets therapy include practical homework and real-time problem solving that translate into home and family life. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT techniques to remote sessions so people continue progressing between meetings.
