Are you facing struggles that feel too large to conquer? Are stressors weighing you down? I help clients navigate these tough questions and work together to understand how to face these challenges. Exploring the choices together and discovering a path that resonates with you. I use a whole-person approach to unlock who you want to be and I will walk alongside as your journey unfolds. The challenges of today can become the strengths of tomorrow! Let’s work together to find that peace of mind you are looking for.

My treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use CBT to help understand the thoughts behind issues that you face. Understanding thoughts and feelings allows you to learn to manage symptoms, and find ways to make changes you would like to make.
Gestalt
I use Gestalt therapy to help people shift needed in their lives.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
The belief that a client has what they need in themselves to change and I work to help you discover the answers within yourself to make the changes that you need to make.
Motivational Interviewing
I use MI to help people clarify and discover their motivation to change.

David is very attuned to my experience of the world and the nuances that can make or break my key relationships. He balances my own self-critical thinking with recognition of my progress and accomplishments. He reminds me that I have human needs as well - and seeking fulfillment in relationship is not necessarily selfish.
