Daniel Christy, LPC

Daniel Christy is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 24 years of clinical experience. He helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, low self-esteem, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting strains, career changes, and coping with life changes. He also supports people facing compassion fatigue and a range of related issues such as cancer, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and first responder stress.

His style is relaxed and direct. Sessions start with whatever is most urgent for the client. He listens first, then offers practical strategies drawn from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches. That can mean identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing new behaviors, and practicing simple attention and breathing techniques.

Daniel uses tools from Client-Centered Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own direction. He focuses on small, measurable steps that build confidence. Conversations tend to be straightforward, goal-oriented, and paced to match each person’s readiness for change.

Over two decades in practice have included work with addiction and anger issues as well as bereavement and major life transitions. He aims to make the decision to seek help feel easier by creating an approachable atmosphere and clear next steps.

Daniel is based in Missouri and offers services in English. He accepts international clients. If you are weighing therapy, he encourages completing an initial questionnaire to match goals and schedule the first session.

Approaches that guide online work

Daniel commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in his work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and addiction. Mindfulness Therapy encourages simple attention practices and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.

He also uses Client-Centered Therapy principles, which means sessions are shaped by the client's concerns and pace. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process; the therapist will work with each person to decide which methods match their goals and comfort level and adjust as progress is made.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and offering alternatives when being on camera is difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and mindfulness exercises for remote sessions so people can practice between meetings and measure small wins over time.
