About David

David also supports people facing ADHD and a range of other challenges that affect daily functioning and wellbeing. He approaches therapy in a warm, person-centered way.
Background and approach
That means he listens first and adapts to each person’s pace and goals. Sessions focus on practical steps and realistic changes rather than only talking about problems. David combines client-centered methods with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practice.
He also uses motivational interviewing techniques when people want help with change, such as cutting back on addictive behaviors or improving motivation. These methods are used openly and simply during sessions so people can try them between meetings. David holds a Master of Social Work from Stony Brook University and carries the Georgia LCSW credential, listed as GA LCSW CSW006757.
He has about ten years of experience in behavioral health settings and has worked with people from varied backgrounds and life circumstances. Therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions are offered in English and run through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, respect, and collaboration. The therapist follows the person’s lead and helps them set goals at a comfortable pace, which works well for issues like low self-esteem, grief, and general life stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It uses clear steps and simple exercises that can be practiced between sessions to reduce anxiety, depression, and anger responses.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. It can help with stress, compulsive behaviors, and emotional overwhelm.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This collaborative process aims to find what fits each person's needs and lifestyle.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people read facial cues and work through exercises visually. Phone sessions can be a good option when video is not possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, shorter coaching-style exchanges, and regular touchpoints between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy lives.
