Danielle works with adults. Danielle has worked extensively with adults and young people who have experienced early childhood trauma.
At A Grounded Nature, we have a different approach to the setup of therapy sessions. Rather than only weekly and fortnightly sessions we combine one on one sessions with intensive trauma treatment programs. We work with clients on a one-on-one basis, and then transition to a 5-day intensive EMDR Program model, built from years of solid peer-reviewed research.
One on One Therapy: Whether you prefer online or face-to-face sessions (in Blackheath), our team will provide you with individualised support. In these sessions we work with clients on a one-on-one basis to map and understand the clients’ journey, goals and trauma. These sessions are conducted weekly or fortnightly and last for 60 minutes.
Intensive 5-Day Therapy Programs (40 hours of therapeutic intervention): Our popular intensive 5-day programs are held in person in Richmond NSW. These programs take place approximately every 6 weeks and are designed to process your trauma using EMDR. We offer various program specialties, and these programs are for individuals who wish to make significant progress within a shorter time frame. Post program you will also be able to engage in further one on one sessions as needed to support the action of your treatment plan.

What do sessions involve?
Danielle is a trauma specialist using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to treat PTSD and trauma.
View EMDRAA (EMDR Association of Australia) for helpful information explaining EMDR.
Sessions encompass three themes to therapy: Process, Education and Plan + Action.
Process: EMDR therapy to work on therapy goals. Work through pain and trauma, addictions and things that are no longer working for you.
Education: Psychoeducation throughout sessions, to support learning about self and how to pay more attention to feelings, thoughts, behaviours and triggers to enable positive change between sessions. Learn new skills and gain tools.
Plan + Action: Make a treatment and next steps plan to support behaviour change and keep focus.
Each EMDR session runs for 1 hour. Investment for individual sessions start at $250 per session including GST.
Health funds include AHM, Bupa, ARHG (including Police Health Fund, Phoenix Health, Emergency Services Health, St. Luke’s Health, Teachers Union Health), Medibank, and Doctors Health Fund (including Grand United). Health fund rebates (depending on your plan) are available for individual sessions. All our therapists are clinical counsellors or psychotherapists and are not registered for Medicare rebates.
Sessions are online or face to face in Blackheath. Sessions are confidential.
There is an opportunity in the warmer months for counselling sessions to take place outdoors in the Upper Blue Mountains. Bush therapy takes advantage of world heritage surroundings, in a confidential and calm space.
