Daphne Hamburg is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Michigan, California, and Virginia who has spent five years supporting people as they pursue meaningful change in their lives.

She began her work providing services to women who survived domestic abuse and sexual assault and has also worked with individuals addressing substance use who were ready to make a change. Over time she has expanded her practice to support a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, relationship and family conflicts, grief, intimacy-related issues, sleep difficulties, parenting and career challenges, mood disorders such as bipolar disorder and depression, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Daphne views each person as bringing existing strengths and talents to the therapeutic process and believes those resources can be developed into practical skills and strategies during sessions. Her counseling style is warm and interactive, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she avoids stigmatizing labels.

Her clinical approach blends cognitive-behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness within a trauma-informed, empowerment-focused framework. She is sex-positive and kink-aware and adapts conversations and treatment plans to fit each person’s unique situation and goals.

She is licensed to practice social work in California and Michigan and is also licensed in Virginia. Located in Michigan, Daphne welcomes individuals who are ready to take the courageous first steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life and is committed to supporting and empowering them through that process.
