Meet

Danielle Willner, MA, MFT Intern

Each of us carries deeply personal stories. I believe therapy can be a space of incredible healing and radical self-acceptance, one that allows us to rewrite some of those stories without the associated shame or fear we may have connected to them, especially around sex, sexuality, and desire.

About Danielle

There are parts of us we’ve learned to hide. The desires we’ve never said out loud, the relationships that don’t fit the mold, the identities we’ve only half-let ourselves claim. Therapy, at its best, is a place where all of those parts get to show up. A place to understand where they came from, what they need, and what it feels like to exist without apology.

My approach is social justice-informed and centered around authenticity and connection. I’m here to help you find your identity, explore intimacy, and engage in personal transformation, however that may look for you. The work we do together is relational and emotional at its core. We pay attention to what’s happening in your body and in your heart, and to the different parts of you that don’t always agree with each other. No shame, no agenda. Just curiosity and honesty.

As a queer, neurodivergent human, I am particularly attuned to the experiences of LGBTQ+ and neuroexpansive clients. My lived experiences in those spheres, as well as the kink and non-monogamous communities, allow me to bring a fully sex-positive, gender-affirming, and culturally sensitive lens to the therapy space I create. That means a supportive, nonjudgmental environment for individuals, couples, and those navigating non-traditional or non-monogamous relationship structures of any kind.

Outside the therapy room, I’m a born-and-raised New Yorker who has called Colorado home for over 15 years. I enjoy spending time with my partners, chosen family, and my dog, Lucy.

I’m truly excited to meet you.
