About Daniella
Dr. Daniella Jackson is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with 20 years of clinical experience. She combines long experience working with adults affected by addiction and related concerns with a warm, straightforward style. She speaks English and Portuguese and brings a practical focus to conversations about stress, relationships, and major life changes.
Her work concentrates on helping people regain a sense of control after addiction, relationship strain, or loss. She guides individuals through anxiety, depression, grief, and self-esteem struggles using approaches that emphasize skills and personal values. She also supports people dealing with parenting stress, career transitions, and compassion fatigue.
Dr. Jackson draws on cognitive behavioral tools alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-informed ideas. She mixes empathy with clear techniques - teaching ways to manage strong emotions, reduce unhelpful thinking, and rebuild trust in relationships. Sessions are oriented toward practical steps clients can try between meetings.
Her background includes long-term work with adults who have addiction and dual disorders, and she has experience helping family members affected by a loved one’s substance use. That experience informs her focus on grief, loss, and communication problems that often come with addiction.
Outside of clinical work she values meditation, walking, and time with animals. She emphasizes collaboration and wants clients to feel understood while they learn new coping tools and make steady changes.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when emotions are hard. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments and behavior changes to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build clearer expectations and safer connections in their close relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then suggest approaches or a blend that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made over time based on what helps most.
Confirm current online session options before booking. Many clients find online work easier to fit into busy schedules because sessions can be scheduled around work, caregiving, or travel. Online sessions also make it simpler to maintain momentum between appointments, practice skills in day-to-day settings, and involve family members when useful. Licensed professionals, including this therapist, can discuss which format will best match a client's goals and situation during the initial matching and scheduling steps.
