How Danielle works
Her approach is solution-focused and highly practical. Together, you will clarify your goals, understand what’s getting in the way, and build lasting change using proven psychological tools:
CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy): identifying and changing the thinking and behaviour patterns that drive stress, anxiety and low mood
ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy): building psychological flexibility, so you can act on your values even when things feel hard
Coaching psychology: setting goals, building skills and sustaining performance over time
Support for performance, wellbeing and mental health
Performance and mindset. Thinking more clearly, handling pressure, building confidence without perfectionism, and improving focus and decision-making.
Wellbeing and sustainability. Preventing burnout, managing stress, recovering well, and setting boundaries in always-on environments.
Mental health. Support with anxiety, low mood, chronic stress, self-criticism and overthinking, before things reach crisis or when you’re already in the middle of it.
Relationships and leadership. Communicating with authority, giving and receiving feedback, handling difficult behaviours, and leading and growing others.
Who Danielle works with

Athletes and high-performance sport. Danielle is the Sydney Swifts Psychologist and works with elite and emerging athletes on performance mindsets, performance under pressure and managing self talk and confidence.
Leaders and professionals in business. Executives, managers and high achievers who want to lead well and sustain their energy and build a high performing culture, that is psychologically safe and has wellbeing at the heart of how they work and perform.
