Danielle Honigstein Kasturi

Danielle Honigstein Kasturi, LMSW, Clinician, is a New York state-licensed psychotherapist who works with individuals and couples seeking healthier, more emotionally secure relationships with themselves and one another. Danielle treats adults and adolescents experiencing anxiety and mood disorders, perfectionism, relationship and dating concerns, challenging life transitions, identity development, and persistent feelings of inadequacy. Danielle is particularly attuned to the ways that high personal standards, self-criticism and rumination can interfere with well-being, connection, and a sense of fulfillment.

Danielle’s solution-oriented, empowering, and compassionate approach supports clients in developing the insight and skills needed to create lives and relationships that are fulfilling and values-aligned. Danielle utilizes evidence-based therapeutic practices including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based interventions to provide treatment that is tailored to each client’s needs. Her social work background informs her belief that all clients bring important assets and resources to therapy, and that these strengths can be powerful tools for growth and change.

Danielle also works with couples seeking to strengthen their relationship and develop a deeper sense of connection and security. She helps couples identify the patterns that contribute to disconnection and teaches practical skills for communicating effectively, resolving conflict, and creating a more satisfying partnership. In addition to couples therapy, Danielle offers a 6-week relationship skills program based on the PREP (Prevention and Relationship Education Program) method, teaching couples evidence-based tools for building and sustaining healthy relationships.

Danielle earned her Master of Social Work from the University of Illinois at Chicago’s Jane Addams College of Social Work, where she specialized in clinical mental health and received advanced training in evidence-based behavioral health interventions. She holds dual Bachelor of Science degrees in Psychology and in Human and Organizational Development from Vanderbilt University, where she graduated cum laude. Her prior clinical experience spans medical systems, community mental health, and nonprofit settings.
