My name is Jeffrey W. Danese, MS, MA, LMHC, LPCC, and I am a licensed mental health counselor in Washington State and California, currently based in Sacramento. I bring over 15 years of clinical experience across private practice, inpatient and outpatient mental health settings, and college counseling, along with a an academic background teaching psychology, religious studies, and the history of science in higher education from UCSB, FSU, and 10 years at SJSU to various community colleges in the Puget Sound region and in North Florida and cross-cultural experiences such as living in Taiwan, Zambia, Germany and traveling around the world; I studied Spanish, German, and Chinese language, world history and religions, psychology, evolutionary psychology and the cognitive science of religion; was raised Catholic but ordained as a Buddhist monk in Thailand; and continue to meditate, explore and read broadly. One of my favorite quotes is by the Roman writer, Terence: "I am human and there is nothing human foreign to me." (or, Homo sum, humani nihil a me alienum puto. -- Publius Terentius Afer, 165 BCE)

I'm Dr. Arie Greenleaf, counselor and professor with 17 years of clinical experience. I'm dedicated to helping individuals navigate challenges and achieve deep, lasting change. I have a PhD from the University of Iowa and a Master's from Clemson. I work with clients of all ages, supporting LGBTQ+ individuals, veterans, and those facing major life challenges. My goal: create a safe space for you to explore, heal, and thrive. Let's work together on your journey to well-being and personal growth!

We all have experiences in life that might leave us feeling broken or disconnected with ourselves, others, in relationships, and the world around us. I believe that healing and wholeness can belong to all of us. If you are looking for someone to support you on your journey toward wellness and restoration, allow me to accompany you on the road that can often feel isolating when taken alone. The therapeutic relationship is paramount to me!

We don't usually get to the feeling bad feelings overnight. It's most often a slow creep that we do our best to keep at bay until the things that have worked to manage the feeling bad feelings don't work anymore. That's usually when we ask for help. I'm here for this moment. And I'm here for the unraveling of all the deep, achy questions. I'm here to get underneath what's working and what's not working for you. And I'm here for the rebuilding so that you can feel the way you want to feel in your life.

Hello,

Welcome to recovery and to getting back into the flow. Healing and growth are possible.

I have many years of experience as a counselor.

Are you ready for something different?

I have been working as a therapist to help clients find healing and gain understanding in themselves since 2016.

I hold a Body Acceptance Group for Women where clients work towards overcoming body shame, learn to nourish and heal their relationship with their body, and start living an empowered life.

Other areas of focus in my work are on adult family relationships, trauma, healing from sexual assault or abuse, and anxiety.
