Meet Danielle,
Founder & Therapist at Ki
“My belief is that healing happens in relationship—with ourselves, with others, and within therapeutic environments. In my experience, meaningful change happens when we feel truly seen, understood, and supported. Connection is the catalyst for transformation.
I founded Ki to create a space where people can be fully human, and experience warmth, curiosity, and acceptance while receiving high-quality and effective mental health and wellness treatment. What an honor it is to witness and support others to transform their lives and accomplish goals they never thought possible.”
