Danielle Nielson

Danielle Nielson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Missouri who brings five years of clinical experience to her work with individuals and families.

She earned a Bachelor of Social Work from Missouri Western State University in 2013 and a Master of Social Work from Park University in 2015, completing her clinical supervision in 2020 to become a fully licensed clinical social worker in the state.

Over the course of her career she has worked in foster care, domestic violence services, and outpatient mental health settings. She previously worked a traditional outpatient schedule and recognized the barrier that daytime hours can create for many people seeking care. To address that gap she provides services through an online platform so clients who cannot access standard 8-5 appointments can still receive therapeutic support.

A single mother of two, she understands the balancing act of work, parenting, and self-care. She also enjoys reading and often finds that exploring literature and characters can open useful pathways for conversation and healing.

Danielle’s clinical focus is helping people identify triggers that undermine their quality of life and then building practical skills to manage those triggers. She works from a warm, strengths-based stance and uses evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and motivational interviewing. She views therapy as a collaborative process and aims to work with clients toward the goals they set for themselves, offering consistent support along the way.
