About Daniela
Daniela Izatt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Utah with four years of experience. She focuses on supporting people dealing with addictions and related challenges such as communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation, and questions about life purpose.
Daniela draws on experience from school-based mental health, substance use treatment, and crisis intervention. Her background includes work with veterans and active-duty service members, which contributed to her familiarity with high-stress situations and urgent care settings.
In sessions she uses a mix of evidence-based techniques. Daniela names Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Narrative Therapy among the approaches that shape her work. She also uses Family Systems ideas and EMDR in ways informed by her previous settings.
Her style is practical and direct. She helps people talk through patterns that keep them stuck, test small changes, and notice what matters most after major life shifts. Conversations include skills, values, and real-world steps rather than abstract theory.
People often come with substance use concerns, problems with communication, or deep feelings of shame and isolation. Daniela helps clients consider forgiveness, self-regard, and how to reconnect to a sense of purpose. She asks about the client’s goals and checks in regularly to adapt the plan.

Approaches and how online work is handled
Daniela often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward them. ACT helps people who feel stuck to identify what matters and practice small steps that align with those values.She also uses Narrative Therapy ideas, which look at the stories people tell about themselves. That approach helps separate a person from unhelpful labels and opens space to try different ways of acting and relating.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Daniela discusses options with each client and adjusts methods based on goals, preferences, and how a person responds in early sessions. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make appointments easier to fit into daily life, shorten travel, and allow for check-ins that suit a busy schedule. Different formats can also make sessions simpler when video is difficult, or allow for a shorter session during a work break. Ask about the practical setup you prefer when you complete the matching questionnaire.
