Dannielle Finnerty
Registered Psychologist
-
Dannielle offers a warm, direct, and collaborative approach to therapy, focused on helping clients understand the patterns that keep them feeling stuck, and developing practical strategies that work in everyday life.
Dannielle supports many clients navigating neurodivergence (including ADHD and autism), anxiety, chronic stress, burnout, or a sense that they’ve lost themselves along the way. She helps to build skills in emotional regulation, reducing overthinking, strengthening self-worth, and reconnecting with identity and values.
Dannielle draws on evidence-based approaches including CBT, ACT, DBT-informed, and trauma-informed therapy, always tailored to the individual—because effective therapy is never one-size-fits-all.
