Healing Through Relational Therapy: The Foundation of Love Is A Verb Counseling
Love Is A Verb Counseling, founded by Danielle Roxborough, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), offers a unique approach to mental health therapy. Specializing in relational therapy for couples, singles, and families, the practice emphasizes healing through authentic connection and quality care. Based in Orange County, California, Love Is A Verb Counseling extends its services to clients across the state, providing both in-person and Telehealth options.
In a healthcare landscape dominated by insurance limitations, Love Is A Verb Counseling breaks away from restrictive practices to offer an experience grounded in humanistic values and an understanding of how deep connections and healthy relationships can impact overall well-being.
Tackling Systemic Barriers in Mental Health Care
The current state of mental health care in the U.S. often places insurance companies as gatekeepers, limiting access to much-needed therapeutic services. Danielle Roxborough recognizes this issue as one that deeply affects both therapists and clients. With many therapists facing burnout due to unlivable wages and overtime hours, the quality of therapy is often compromised.
In particular, couples therapy is frequently overlooked or undervalued by insurance providers, with many refusing to cover it or offering only partial reimbursements. As a result, couples are left with limited options for resolving their relationship issues. Danielle's experience working in various mental health fields—addiction, eating disorders, and family mental health—has given her a deep understanding of these challenges. Her practice, Love Is A Verb Counseling, offers a solution by focusing on high-quality care that prioritizes the therapeutic relationship over insurance constraints.
A Personal Journey That Shapes a Professional Practice
Danielle's path to becoming a therapist is deeply rooted in her personal experiences. Growing up with ADHD and feeling othered in the high-pressure environment of a Los Angeles high school, she found solace in her parents' strong and loving marriage. This contrast—her parents' consistent, emotionally available relationship in a world where many of her peers experienced divorce—sparked her early interest in understanding what makes relationships successful.
At 13, Danielle began working in her father's renowned engagement ring store, the "World's Biggest Engagement Ring Store." Here, she was exposed to the intricacies of love and commitment, insights that would later inform her therapeutic approach. These early experiences shaped her belief that healthy relationships are key to a fulfilling life, a belief that is now central to her work as a relational therapist.
Specialization and Commitment to Continued Education
Danielle's extensive training and credentials set her apart in the field of relational therapy. She is a Level 2 Gottman Method Therapist, known for her expertise in couples therapy. Additionally, she is a certified facilitator for "The 7 Principles for Making Marriage Work" and is currently completing certification in the FairPlay Method, a groundbreaking approach to addressing the balance of responsibilities within relationships.
Her practice also integrates trauma-informed care, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). These modalities allow her to address both the root causes of psychological symptoms and provide practical, symptom-management techniques. By focusing on these evidence-based methods, Danielle offers her clients a holistic, research-driven approach that promotes long-term healing.
Relational Therapy as a Lifeline to Wellness
At Love Is A Verb Counseling, the focus goes beyond traditional relationship therapy. Danielle applies a broader lens, examining how individuals relate not only to others but also to key aspects of their lives, such as food, alcohol, money, and self-worth. This relational approach helps clients gain insight into their inner world, ultimately leading to improved mental health, stronger relationships, and even a longer, healthier life.
Studies consistently show that healthy relationships can add years to one’s life, while toxic relationships are linked to physical ailments such as chronic pain and gastrointestinal issues. Danielle’s approach to therapy helps clients recognize patterns, solve relational challenges, and develop the tools needed to foster lasting, fulfilling relationships.
Healing Yourself to Heal Your Relationships
Danielle firmly believes that by healing the self, one can begin to heal their relationships with others. Her own life journey, marked by 25 years of individual therapy, has equipped her with the empathy and insight necessary to guide her clients through their struggles. As a wife, mother, stepmother, and business owner, Danielle understands firsthand the complexities of maintaining healthy relationships while managing life’s demands. This experience informs her compassionate approach to therapy, ensuring that her clients feel supported and understood.
Telehealth and In-Person Therapy: Expanding Access Across California
Recognizing the importance of accessibility, Love Is A Verb Counseling offers both in-person therapy at its Orange County office and Telehealth services to clients throughout California. This flexibility allows individuals and couples to receive high-quality care from the comfort of their homes, making therapy more accessible to those who may face geographical or logistical barriers.
The Philosophy Behind the Name: Love as an Active Choice
The name "Love Is A Verb Counseling" reflects Danielle’s core philosophy: love is not passive; it is an active choice that requires effort and intention. This concept resonates deeply with the motivated singles and couples who seek out her services. Whether clients are navigating the complexities of a romantic relationship, struggling with family dynamics, or working on self-love, Danielle’s practice offers a supportive space for them to heal and grow.
By choosing Love Is A Verb Counseling, clients are investing in their relationships, their mental health, and ultimately, their future.
