Therapy

No one gives us humans an operating manual or instruction book for how to deal with tough situations. I am here to guide you in a non-judgmental way through the therapeutic process. My name is pronounced "Dah-NEE-ka" and thanks to Talkspace, I live in a travel trailer with my husband traveling the USA. I was born and raised in Massachusetts and I am a New England girl at heart but we lived the last 18 years in Northern VA/Metro DC until my husband retired. My husband and I have 2 "four-legged" kids (dogs). I'd welcome the opportunity to help you write your personal instruction manual!
