Danielle Larson

Danielle Larson, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois who supports people navigating complex emotions and life transitions. Her work emphasizes a compassionate, affirming environment where clients can explore what is feeling stuck, identify personal strengths, and build practical skills for lasting change.

With extensive experience working with young adults, Danielle helps clients address concerns such as stress and anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, grief, and mood-related difficulties. She also supports individuals working through attachment patterns, self-esteem, career pressures, and coping with life changes, meeting each person with respect for their pace and priorities.

Danielle brings a progressive, non-religious perspective to therapy and is especially committed to supporting LGBTQ+ communities.

Grounded in evidence-based practices, Danielle works with a wide range of needs, including addictions, family and parenting concerns, intimacy-related issues, anger, and challenges connected to work and relationships. Her aim is to help clients build resilience, develop healthier ways of coping, and create more meaningful connections over time.
