More about David
- 15 years' experience
- Male
- LPCC
I am a counselor licensed in Ohio with over 15 years of experience working in social services, community mental health, and private practice. I have had the opportunity to serve clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, and life and career challenges. Additionally I have spent a large part of my career supporting individuals in the helping professions cope with burnout, compassion fatigue, and the effects of vicarious trauma. I have also worked with individuals around integrating spiritual formation into their counseling, however, I don't discuss spiritual health unless the client indicates this is something they are interested in.
The feedback that I've received about my counseling style is that I'm patient, empathetic, and supportive. I believe that growth happens at the edge of our comfort zones and change happens within the context of relationships. My approach is rooted in cognitive-behavioral therapy, but borrows from other disciplines as well.
I think my diverse background and experience lends itself well to being able to adapt to the approach and style that best meets your needs. However, the most important thing is that you find someone you are comfortable working with. Hopefully we'll have the chance to work together, but if not I wish you the best as you move forward in your journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
