Danielle Bell-Dunnam, LMFT, MA

Psychotherapist
8989 Rio San Diego Dr, Ste 200, San Diego, CA
Danielle Bell-Dunnam is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California who has been practicing since 2019. She earned her Master's in Counseling Psychology from National University. Danielle has a versatile, direct, and creative approach to therapy. She quickly forms relationships with a wide range of clients from various cultures, ages, symptoms, and needs. This ability allows her to conceptualize the client's reasons for coming to therapy early on and continuously, so she can tailor her style and theoretical approaches in ways that resonate with each individual. While Danielle often uses a directive style, she adjusts according to the client's needs and personality. Down to earth and drawing on a great deal of life experience, she believes this is an incredible asset to her practice. Danielle also uses humor when appropriate to build rapport and ease the therapeutic process. She has extensive experience working with children of all ages, though adolescents and adults are her strongest areas. Danielle understands the importance of incorporating creative interventions to keep clients engaged during sessions. She regularly asks for and encourages feedback to ensure therapy stays on track toward meeting the client's goals. In her free time, Danielle loves to travel, see live music, explore new sounds, and take long, explorative walks-even in her own neighborhood. She is passionate about playing games of all kinds, from highly strategic board games to silly common ones, as well as active sports, video games, lawn games, and games like pool, shuffleboard, and darts. She enjoys spending time with friends and family and watching most sports. Her favorite sport, and sincere passion, is volleyball, which she plays regularly-mostly beach, but also indoor and grass.
