Getting to know David Woodard

Hello, I'm Dave Woodard, MSW, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping you find balance, strength, and purpose in your life. With a Master of Social Work degree from Washington University earned in 2004, I have spent years providing professional counseling services to individuals facing a variety of mental health challenges, including depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety, and personality disorders such as BPD. My therapeutic philosophy is centered around establishing meaningful relationships with my clients and utilizing evidence-based interventions to facilitate growth and healing. I believe in the power of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge negative thought patterns and incorporate mindfulness techniques to promote self-awareness and emotional regulation. Teaching coping skills that enhance the quality of life is a cornerstone of my practice. I am passionate about serving diverse communities, including the LGBTQIA+ community, people of color, and other marginalized groups. My practice is inclusive and welcoming to individuals from all backgrounds. I offer a humanistic, person-centered approach that focuses on helping you discover your true identity and cultivate hope for the future. If you are in Missouri and seeking professional counseling services, I am here to support you on your journey towards mental wellness. Together, we can work towards finding your voice, meaning, and purpose. Contact me today to schedule a consultation and take the first step towards a brighter tomorrow. Let's embark on this journey of self-discovery and empowerment together.
