Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 16 mi away • South Jordan, UT


I work with individuals who are ambitious and capable but often feel stretched thin trying to keep up with life, goals, and expectations. Many of my clients are professionals or working adults navigating stress, burnout, perfectionism, or self-doubt. I also enjoy working with teenage girls (13+). Together, we’ll uncover what’s holding you back, set realistic boundaries for your time and energy, manage stress, and find more peace in the present while still working toward meaningful goals for your future.

I’m EMDR-trained and IFS-informed. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Boise State University in 2021.

Danielle Musick

Therapist

Virtual • Millcreek, UT


I’m a trauma‐informed therapist who believes healing doesn’t require perfection—just honesty, compassion, and a willingness to take the next small step. Most of the people I work with are balancing careers, relationships, parenting, and the invisible emotional load that comes with everyday life. They’re strong, capable, and exhausted from carrying more than anyone realizes.

Clients often tell me they appreciate that I’m real, relatable, and not the kind of therapist who just nods silently. I show up fully. I help you connect the dots. And I hold space for the parts of you that have been working so hard for so long.

If you’re looking for a therapist who understands the realities of everyday life and offers nonjudgemental compassionate support, I’d be honored to work with you.
