Counselor bio

Danielle Federico-Valdez

About Danielle

I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up exactly as you are. My approach is centered on meeting you where you are, without judgment or pressure, and creating a safe, supportive space where individuals of all ages and families can feel heard, understood, and respected. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families who may be navigating trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, anxiety, family stress, or the impact of difficult past experiences. Together, we can explore what is getting in the way, identify your strengths, and develop practical tools that support healing, growth, and lasting change. My therapeutic style is collaborative, strengths-based, and trauma-informed. I draw from approaches such as CBT, EFT, IFS, trauma-focused interventions, and family systems work, tailoring treatment to each client’s unique needs and goals. I also understand that faith and spirituality can be an important part of the healing process. When desired by the client, I am comfortable incorporating Christian faith and spiritual values into therapy in a respectful and clinically appropriate way. My goal is to walk alongside you at a pace that feels manageable, helping you feel supported as you move toward greater stability, connection, and hope.

Summary
Across hundreds of client reviews, one theme comes through again and again: people feel truly heard here. Clients describe finally finding a therapist who understood them, gaining real tools for anxiety, trauma, and anger management, and walking away from sessions feeling lighter and more hopeful. Many say Overcomers was the first place therapy actually felt like the right fit — a space to be met with warmth, patience, and genuine care on the path to becoming who they're meant to be.

Shannon is wonderful. She's kind and she guides you to the answer through feedback and questions. She listens to my perception of my experience but also offers input that allows you to see the possibility of a different perspective.

Barbra Styles, LPC
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Barb is incredibly kind and patient. She kept the sessions productive and honest. She made me feel heard and helped with problem-solving. Having her as my therapist for the past several years was vital for my personal growth. I highly recommend her services and would happily return as a client if my schedule ever opens back up.

 Hilary Helkenn PMHNP-BC
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hilary was lovely. She was kind, patient, incredibly knowledgeable and very validating. She had extensive knowledge of my conditions that most providers dismiss and it was very comforting and encouraging to hear she knew of those conditions and was well informed of them. Best psychiatrist I've had yet. 10/10
