Faith-Based Christian Counseling in Pennsylvania
Hi,
I'm Danielle, Licensed Clinician & Founder of Trinity Wellness Group, LLC, Welcome to my website!
Since you are on my page, I know that you are looking for someone to help you with something!
While therapy is a very effective solution to many problems in life, finding the right fit for you is the most important part of the process & will determine if it works for you.
As you keep reading about me, if I do not resonate with you, please keep looking to find someone who does!
You can read more about my training & expertise on the "About Me" Page , to help you feel more confident that I am the right person for what you need, before you fully commit to an intake session.
I do require a 15 minute consultation to make sure that I am the best person for what you are experiencing & needing, and to make sure our schedules align, etc.
I am very passionate about what I do as a therapist, and I am committed to lifelong learning.
Every month I invest in professional consultation and regularly invest in courses to improve my clinical skills.
My fees, schedule, & policies reflect the commitment I have to my profession and my clients, which is to provide high quality, effective therapy, with a smaller caseload.
This is so that I am showing up at each session dedicated to the client in front of me, fully present and not overscheduled, or burned out.
If you see me for therapy, it is not a time to "chat" or to identify problems without going deep to explore it, & having a plan of action to deal with it...
For the first 10- 15 minutes or so, you will share any updates, concerns, and we will determine what would be helpful to work on during the rest of the time, and we then get to work! (The first 1-3 sessions are assessments, treatment planning, diagnostics before get into the ongoing work!)
It is important to me that I model for my clients the importance of knowing what you value and living your life to reflect those values...
...To heal from anything that is keeping you from experiencing the freedom to live out your plan and purpose God has for you...
and...
...To guard your heart. To develop healthy boundaries, letting your "yes's" be "yes's" and your "No's be No's"..
..Not out of fear, trauma, woundedness, people-pleasing, addiction, or co-dependency.
And I want you to know, that it is through my most challenging life situations, that I learned the most valuable lessons, & did the most deepest work...
Whatever is bringing you into therapy, this is an opportunity for real change that can last a lifetime!
If you are a Christian, then you are probably aware, that the best things about you, the things God wants to use you for, are those things that will become a target...
My work as a therapist is an extension of who God has called me to be, and because of this, I must guard my own heart, time, values, with good boundaries, and skills and I help my clients to do the same.
As an EMDR Clinician, & Brainpotting Practioner, and I will likely recommend this as a treatment approach for you, as it is my therapy modality of choice for clients seeking faster results than traditional talk therapy...I have been amazed at the powerful healing that takes place with holistic. integrative, mindful processing.
It is my desire to help my clients find freedom from their symptoms, not just learn to cope, so we work collaboratively to get to root causes of the negative patterns, thoughts, memories, sensations, & behaviors that are getting in the way of that freedom, and like weeds "we pull them out" so they don't keep taking over!
It brings me joy to see my clients walk in healing and wholeness..
Healing IS possible for you & I'd love to help!
Please feel free to look around the website to read more about me, my practice, my specialty areas, etc.!
I don't want my clients to have to "just cope" , I help them go deep, to root causes to experience healing & freedom, with EDMR

A quick overview of services provided
Individual Therapy
Get personalized one-on-one therapy sessions to explore your feelings, thoughts and behaviors in a safe and confidential environment that is rooted in your values, needs, & aimed at helping you gain insight & reduce or eliminate symptom's you are experiencing!
ONLINE Group Therapy
You do not have to be a current client seeing me for individual therapy to participate in group therapy. You can have another therapist for services and join me for group, it is appropriate for your treatment plan goals!
The power of group therapy for our healing is so powerful! Sometimes what we we cannot put into words, we hear someone share it!
And sometimes we hear our own stories & feel validated, seen, heard, & connected.
Groups may seem scary, to be with complete strangers talking about hard things, and yet, most people find gratitude that they included the power of group in their recovery plan!
I recommend groups for nearly all clients for extra support Email if you have an interest in group & I we can discuss what groups are available or coming up!
EMDR
A helpful therapy approach for anxiety, acute or complex trauma, depression, self-esteem, and more!
Can be used in 1:1 sessions, online, in person, with families, adults, and children!
For those seeking a Christian Counseling approach, EMDR is a great resource to build faith while processing difficult memories or experiences. EMDR can even be used in context of marriage therapy!
I offer intensive EMDR sessions, which are 90 minute to up to 3 hours of EMDR work, This has been shown to be effective for some individuals, especially those with busy work weeks and the "stop and start" trauma work from week to week is delaying the healing.
Grief Therapy
We can work together in therapy to name your losses and learn about grief, the stages of grief, naming where you are in your grief cycle, how grief is affecting you & strategies to move through the stages of grief for full healing & restoration.
For my clients who have sought me out for Christian Counseling, we usually find that loss, pain, & grief has impacted their trust in God, and naming this, addressing the anger, & hurt is an important aspect of healing process! I offer an open space to question with or wrestle with faith questions!
Animal Assisted Therapy & Nature -Based Therapy
If you are interested in walk and talk, nature based therapy, with or without Kingston (a Bernese Mountain Dog who LOVES people so much!) or Harleigh (a Chocolate Lab), this may be an option based on multiple factors, such as weather, treatment plan goals, needs, etc.!
If you would like to explore this as an option, just ask!
IN PERSON ONLY - CAN DISCUSS LENGTH & LOCATION
Couples Therapy
I have extensive training and experience in Betrayal Trauma and couples-centered recovery for clients seeking Christian Marriage Therapy for affairs, pornography use/addiction, emotional affairs, etc.
If you are seeking help for this level of need with a Christian Counseling perspective, I am equipped, and prepared to help. If both parties are willing to work on the marriage, then there can be beauty in ashes for your relationship.
I can help couples with a variety of challenges and use my training in Gottman Method, Prepare-Enrich and experience in Core Attachment Pattern work.
I heavily rely on the trauma model approach from my training in APSATS (Association of Partners of Sex Addicts & Trauma Specialists) to help women with the pain of betrayal trauma.
Anxiety Treatment
Learn practical tools in therapy to manage anxiety symptoms and improve your quality of life. Often EMDR is a helpful intervention for anxiety!
Depression Therapy
In therapy we will explore the root causes of your depression from a holistic perspective and learn effective coping strategies to improve your mood and overall well-being.
Trauma Therapy
All humans have experienced trauma. How we cope with these traumatic situations, how long it has been going on, what belief systems we formed, and our level of support are all factors to consider in trauma therapy. I help you get to the root of your trauma as quickly as you are comfortable going and as safe as you feel! I will help you educate you, provide resources you can use in between sessions for coping and to regulate.
