Danielle Emina

Danielle Emina draws on a long history in healthcare that began in 1994, including two decades living and working in Georgia. She began her career as a Medical Assistant in Maryland and has since gained experience across a wide range of clinical settings.

Her clinical background spans adult and child care, family work, obstetrics and gynecology, neurology, urgent and emergent care, dermatology, medical-surgical units, and mother-and-baby services. She has also taught medical assisting, coordinated externships for students, and held roles in secondary education at career colleges and business schools. Her employment history includes positions with large hospital systems such as Johns Hopkins University and Dekalb Medical Center.

She earned a bachelor’s degree in Sociology from Georgia State University in 2010 and a master’s degree in Community Counseling from Argosy University in 2013. She is licensed to practice in Georgia as a Licensed Professional Counselor. In addition to three years of providing therapy services, she has worked as a crisis counselor with veterans and began her counseling career serving children and teenagers in community settings.

Danielle practices a solution-focused approach, which means she tends to be direct and focused on practical strategies to address problems, while remaining open to other modalities when a situation calls for a different emphasis. She is motivated by helping people function at their highest capacity across work, family, social life, and purpose, believing that improving one’s mental state supports growth in other areas of life.

Her personal experience as a teen parent, having had her first child at 15 and a second at 19, informs her empathy and understanding of early life challenges. She uses that perspective to help clients work through real and self-imposed obstacles and to pursue greater life fulfillment.
