Testimonials
"Danielle provided in-home art therapy services for my 7 year old son, who undergoes annual colonoscopies. My son was apprehensive and reluctant to complete the bowel prep, but Danielle adeptly helped him utilize art as a creative diversion, which helped alleviate his anxiety. With patience and understanding, Danielle navigated my son's frustrations, and addressed his concerns about the upcoming procedure.
Throughout the process, Danielle not only assisted my son in expressing himself through art but also provided insightful answers to our questions about the medical procedure. Her ability to create a positive and engaging atmosphere extended beyond art therapy— Danielle introduced games, and encouraged all family members to participate, which really lifted our spirits and lightened the mood. Her holistic approach and unwavering support made a significant impact on our overall experience.
In times of medical stress, Danielle's expertise and dedication stood out, transforming what could have been a tense situation into a more manageable one. We greatly appreciate her commitment to enhancing our son's well-being during these challenging moments."

“Danielle stands out as extremely dependable and intelligent whose enthusiasm, openness to learning, and wonderful sense of humor make her a real pleasure to work with. She is also a caring and empathic individual whose warmth and compassion puts others at ease. This allowed her to function well as an interdisciplinary team member in the Emergency Department of a regional trauma center within the Behavioral Health Services Department at Morristown Medical Center. Danielle worked with children, adolescents and adults of all ages in our department during times of acute crisis. Her work has assisted in the stabilization and evaluation of patients, while providing them a healthy outlet for self-expression through creative expression.
Leading both dynamic and engaging art therapy groups to our Intensive Outpatient Psychiatric Facility and Inpatient Psychiatric Unit, Danielle uses her creative intuition, fosters the ability to capture her audience, providing them outstanding care and innovative art projects, some of which she developed.
Goal-oriented, she has a unique way of relating to each patient, providing the utmost attention to detail, as she addresses the individual, promoting both self-awareness and further self-exploration, while exploring the process of using art as a self soothing technique.
Danielle demonstrates confidence and professionalism, and exhibits respect from her colleagues in the hospital she served. I have no doubts that you will be exceptionally pleased if you were to give her the opportunity.”
