About Daniel
Daniel Christy is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, self esteem, depression, relationship concerns, family issues, grief, parenting, career questions, coping with life changes, coaching, and compassion fatigue. He has 24 years of experience and uses straightforward conversation to help people figure out next steps.
His style is relaxed and practical. Sessions begin with what matters most to the client. He listens, then offers tools drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness.
Background and approach
He also uses other approaches when they fit the problem and the person. In the room he aims to keep things simple and concrete. He helps people identify patterns, test small behavior changes, and practice skills between sessions.
He explains techniques in plain language and focuses on results that feel realistic for daily life. Daniel brings two decades of experience to common adult concerns like workplace stress, anxiety, depression, anger management, and substance use issues. He also addresses family problems, grief, end-of-life and hospice related matters, and caregiving or aging questions.
Clients can expect a collaborative tone that balances support with practical steps. Daniel works with each person to set goals and measure progress. He recognizes that starting therapy is difficult and aims to make the process manageable and clear.
Practical approaches for online support
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting conversation. The therapist gives space for clients to describe what matters and then reflects understanding back to help clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thought and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches coping skills for intense emotions and helps with problem solving and emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Daniel collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their situation and goals. He will try practical techniques first and adjust based on what helps most for the client's daily life.
Online sessions can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match people's schedules. These options make it easier to keep regular appointments, practice skills between contacts, and get support without extra travel. The variety of formats lets clients pick what works best for their routine and comfort level.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
