More about David

  • 12 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPC

My name is David Rawlins, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan, and an Approved Clinical Supervisor. I have over a decade of experience in the field of mental health and currently operate a private counseling practice in Lake Orion, MI. I primarily work with adolescents and adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, career issues, trauma related issues, and other life challenges.

My approach is to develop a relaxed, non-threatening, and therapeutic relationship with my clients. I recognize that asking for help can be a very difficult concept and at the same time view it as a sign of strength. I provide a rapport with my clients that helps them to feel comfortable sharing and focus on the key issues at hand.

I completed my master's degree in counseling at Argosy University - Nashville. I also have a bachelor's degree in psychology from Siena Heights University in Adrian, MI. My professional experience includes working in community mental health agencies, teaching counseling students, supervising counselors, and working with clients in my private practice. I have specialized training in working with people with a history of trauma and work to teach them skills to regain their ability to cope with stressful events.

If you are searching for help, direction, or need help getting past an obstacle in your personal or professional life, I would welcome the opportunity to assist you.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
