I am committed to helping you and yours enrich your lives—by empowering you to unpack what’s preventing you from fully embracing all of life’s pleasures.

Hi, I’m Dr. Danielle Armour.

First and foremost, I’m a bisexual (and queer-at-heart) woman/wife/mother, and my pronouns are she/her/hers. I have a big, blended family and a gaggle of animals. My soul is nourished through travel and wandering. The beach is my happy place, but the mountains hold a piece of my heart. I’m always reading multiple books at once. I love strength training, yoga, and trail walks with the people I love. I’m a lifelong learner—and, admittedly, a lifelong procrastinator with a beautifully neurospicy brain that’s always buzzing with ideas.

Beyond trail walks and book stacks, professionally, I’m a clinical social worker, psychotherapist and clinical sexologist with over 18 years of experience working in the human services field. I’m also a registered yoga and breathwork teacher—training that deeply informs my work with nervous system healing. I grew up just outside of Boston, Massachusetts, but don’t expect an accent! I was asked one too many times if I pahk the cah in Havahd yahd, and I taught myself to say my R’s. But…I do love that dirty water. I’m physically located in Virginia these days, but maintain my New England practice & visit often.

On to the boring, albeit important stuff, you may want to know about me. I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology, a master’s degree in clinical social work and a doctoral degree in clinical sexology—think the study of human sexuality meets psychosexual & relationship therapy. I’m a certified sex therapist through the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT). I am licensed to practice therapy in Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire and Virginia. I offer consultation & coaching to couples and individuals all over the world. Regardless of location, all of my clients are seen virtually. While I miss being in the office, and sharing energy, don’t let remote sessions deter you. I am confident in my ability to connect as deeply with you virtually as we would in person.

I’m my authentic self with my clients—I show up and let myself be seen. I have boundaries and good ethics, but what you see is what you get. I’m transparent. I’ll challenge you. You’ll be seen and heard, but I won’t sugarcoat anything. I’m me and you are you; we can both show up fully.

Treatment Modalities:

This list is not exhaustive, but rather examples of evidence-based methods I use.

How I Work: An Integrative, Nervous System-Informed Approach

I combine evidence-based modalities with a deep understanding of the nervous system—so our work isn’t just about insight, it’s about transformation. Together, we’ll use tools that meet your body where it is and guide you toward the connection, safety, and vitality you crave.

  • Somatic Experiencing & Mindfulness-Based Therapy
    Help you notice what's happening in your body—and build the capacity to shift from survival states (like fight, flight, freeze, or fawn) into regulation, rest, and an openness for intimacy.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
    Gently challenges the anxious or shame-based thoughts that reinforce emotional dysregulation—offering new, supportive ways to relate to yourself, your partner, and your experience.

  • The Gottman Method
    Offers science-backed tools for couples to repair conflict, communicate needs, and co-regulate—especially during moments of disconnection or emotional flooding.

  • Narrative Therapy
    Helps you rewrite the old stories (often rooted in stress, trauma, or cultural conditioning) that shape your sense of self, sexuality, and relationships.

  • Solution-Focused Therapy
    Builds momentum by helping you clarify what’s working, where you feel most alive, and what small, sustainable steps can bring more of that into your daily life.
