About me

Hello, I'm David. Do you have a change you are facing and are unsure about which direction to go? Are you questioning your identity or aspects of who you are? 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.

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.
