Zoila (Mimi) Danta

I am a Bi-Lingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 39 years experience in working with adults, and the elderly population. I have worked with foster care children and adolescents that were in the foster system. Additionally, I have many years of experience as a Director for the DUI programs and provided education, individual and group therapy to clients with substance abuse problems. I have experience in working with clients with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, self esteem issues, career challenges, substance abuse, domestic violence and other mental health diagnosis. I am certified in Domestic Violence as an assessor and group facilitator. Additionally, I have been a Director of Quality Assurance for both State and County Program to insure that agencies were providing quality services to their clients, and were in compliance with Federal and State Laws. I have trained many therapist on ethics, treatment planning, group therapy, and assessments. I have always treated clients with respect, with an awareness of cultural diversities. I interact with my clients with empathy and an understanding and sensitivity to their needs, and the different issues they are experiencing. Some of my therapy approaches are Cognitive-Behavioral, and Solution Focus and treatment planning is individualized to the client needs. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Many people suffer with issues and try to find solutions on their own. But I am ready to WALK and WORK with you. YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
