About Daniella

Dr. Daniella Jackson is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 20 years of experience in behavioral health. She holds a Ph.D. in Psychology and brings long-term clinical experience supporting adults affected by addiction, anger, and self-management concerns. Dr. Jackson also helps people who have been impacted by a loved one’s addictive behavior and the emotional fallout that can follow.

She uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. Expect clear skill-building, practical strategies, and space to talk through what feels overwhelming. Sessions often focus on managing stress, anxiety, mood shifts, and relationship strain related to addiction and life transitions.

Her clinical work draws on cognitive behavioral techniques, client-centered humanistic ideas, and acceptance-based strategies. She blends these to help people notice unhelpful patterns, practice new behaviors, and clarify values that guide change.

Dr. Jackson also incorporates attachment-based perspectives when relationship patterns or parenting concerns come up. This helps people understand how past bonds shape current reactions and how to build more supportive connections moving forward.

She speaks English and Portuguese and has spent many years working with adults and with families affected by addiction. If you want a practical, calm guide who prioritizes coping skills and clearer decision making, she may be a good person to contact.

How her approaches fit with online therapy

Dr. Jackson commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and cognitive behavioral methods. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and on choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation when change feels hard. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship experiences shape current patterns and helps people build healthier ways of relating to others. It can be useful for intimacy issues, parenting stress, and relationship conflict. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practicing new skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and concerns. Sessions can mix techniques so practical skills and relational insight both move forward together.

Please confirm which online session formats are offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten commute time, and allow focused work on skills between appointments. If you prefer a certain rhythm or type of meeting, discuss it during the intake so scheduling and approach match your needs.
