More about Daniel Downey, LCSW
Hi there, I'm Daniel!
Hello, I’m Daniel Downey, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist based in St. Louis, Missouri. I provide mental health services to individuals across the state. My practice has two main areas of focus. The first is working with individuals experiencing anxiety and related disorders such as OCD, phobias, panic disorder, and depression. I My second area of focus is working with young adults experiencing difficulties with major life transitions, including those related to gender identity and sexuality. I incorporate cognitive theory, solution focused therapy, mindfulness, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy approaches.
My approach
My therapeutic approach is eclectic, incorporating several different approaches, although most are variations of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. While original cognitive based therapy is is most often employed, I also borrow from Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as well as Solution Focused Therapy. I have found these most helpful in assisting clients to reach a higher quality of life.
My focus
Over the years, I have taken cues from my client populations to inform me as to where my strengths are and with whom I am most productive as a therapist. Depression and anxiety and related disorders including OCD in adults is an area that I have accumulated a wealth of experience and assisted individuals toward success. Along with this population, I have enjoyed having had the chance to work with many young adults in overcoming obstacles of major life changes and transitions. This includes assisting in finding validation and acceptance with gender identity and sexuality.
My communication style
My communication style is enthusiastic, welcoming, non-judgemental, patient, genuine, while also being assertive and educational. This mix of styles allows me to build strong, trusting working alliances without judgement.
