Danielle Hurwitz, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Danielle!

My goal is to support you with your journey and meet you where you're at. My focus has been supporting our LGBTQIAS2+ community.

My focus

I work with the LGBTQIAS2+ population. So this means I focus on everything, including trauma, depression, anxiety, adjustments to new situations, and gender journeys.

My approach

I am a humanist at heart and would love to just meet you where you need me to be. We will figure out your journey together.

My communication style

I want to make sure my clients feel comfortable and empowered. I use humor when appropriate, always reflect and remind you of your goals, and will confront you when it's necessary.

My journey to mental healthcare

Before this part of my life's journey, I was privileged enough to work with the unhoused both in Los Angeles and in San Francisco. I returned to school and fell in love with the therapeutic process.

My goals for you

Most of us do need support figuring out what we're trying to understand about ourselves. We'll focus on what's going on for you right now and go from there.

Our first session

Our first session is all about making you feel comfortable. We'll discuss goals and, if we can, we'll create an action plan. Most of all I want you to feel comfortable to tell me about you.
