More about David

- LPC
As a licensed therapist in Connecticut, I bring four decades of compassionate counseling experience to supporting individuals through life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship difficulties with deep understanding and professional care.
I specialize in addressing issues such as social isolation, life purpose exploration, panic disorders, post-traumatic stress, and the emotional complexities of divorce and separation. My approach is grounded in creating a supportive, understanding environment where individuals can heal and rediscover their inner strength.
Drawing from extensive clinical experience, I offer a faith-sensitive counseling approach that respects each person's unique spiritual journey. I'm particularly committed to working with older adults and those seeking meaningful, transformative therapeutic support. My goal is to help clients develop resilience, improve self-esteem, and find pathways toward emotional wellness and personal growth.

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.
