Russell Daniel, LCSW 

licensed clinical social worker

Hi! My name is Russell Daniel. I am a fourth generation Southern Californian and a licensed clinical social worker. Therapy doesn’t have to be scary or intimidating; we will work together to make therapy approachable and meaningful.

I have been working with individuals with developmental conditions (Autism, Down Syndrome, etc.) for over twenty years and in aging and medical services for over a decade.

My wish for the individuals and groups that I work with is that they will rediscover the tools that have gotten them through challenging times and learn new tools that complement their strengths. I work to create an open and supportive environment that places you to be in the driver’s seat. I believe my role is to be supportive, honest, and always 100% real with you.

I believe the impact of small, practical changes can ripple and grow beyond our imagination.

Specialties and Experience:

• Adults 65+

• Dependent Adults

• This includes younger and older adults who depend on others for some level of support due to medical or developmental conditions

• Caregiver and Support System Stress and Strain

• Aging and Dependent Services and Care (Assisted Living, Skilled Nursing Facilities)
