David brings a calm, practical style that aims to make sessions straightforward and useful for everyday life.

Background and approach
David holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential, LCSW, and has worked in the field for 35 years. That experience includes professional coaching and time supporting people through divorce and decisions about life purpose. He speaks English and offers services to people inside and outside the United States.
His background includes long personal practice of mindfulness meditation and study in international settings. David spent time in Thailand deepening his meditation practice and brings that lived experience into his work when helpful. He uses plain language and a steady presence rather than jargon.
Sessions can address attachment concerns like fear of abandonment, control issues, and social anxiety. David also helps men facing identity or role questions and supports people wanting to build more self-love and healthier workplace coping. His approach aims to fit the person, not force a particular method.
How his approach works online and in-session
David uses a few straightforward methods that translate well to remote work. Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how past hurts shape present reactions. This can be useful for worries about abandonment and for building more supported ways of relating. Client-centered work puts the person’s goals in the lead, with the therapist following the client’s pace and priorities to address what matters most.Finding the right approach is part of the process. David will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that match those needs. He checks in and adjusts the plan as progress and priorities change so the work stays relevant and practical.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows fuller interaction and visual cues, while phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief updates, homework support, or scheduling between sessions. These options offer flexibility so people can fit therapy into busy lives without long commutes.
