Licensed Graduate Social Worker
Welcome! I strive to provide a safe, comfortable and welcoming space for all of my clients! I look forward to meeting you
Hey guys, my name is Will Danaher and I've just recently graduated with a Master's in Social Work (MSW) degree and obtained my licensure as a Licensed Graduate Social Worker (LGSW). In my therapy practice, I'm committed to supporting individuals on their journey towards healing and self-discovery and I aim to work collaboratively with clients on whatever their goals may be. I've had experience working with clients that come from a range of different backgrounds and identities, and I'm dedicated to working from a social justice lens and being culturally-sensitive/aware with all of my clients. My therapeutic approach comes from a humanistic perspective, that believes that each client has an inherent capacity to heal and grow. My role as a therapist is to provide a supportive and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I believe that you are the expert on your own life, and I'm here to help you gain insight and understanding into yourself and the challenges you may face. Outside of therapy, I find myself spending time with loved ones, reading, and continually adding to my deep passion for music, movies, and the arts in general.
