More about David
- 3 years' experience
- Male
I am an Applied Psychologist, specialized in guiding adults through personal transformation, stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, depression, getting out of your head and major life transitions. My approach combines in-depth dialogue with practical tools, helping clients gain insight, recognize hidden patterns, and strengthen their self-awareness. I always work attuned to the unique needs of each individual, emphasizing a safe and non-judgmental connection.
In addition to my one-on-one work, I facilitate men’s groups and foster a community focused on personal growth and authentic connection. I provide a safe environment where participants can explore themselves more deeply.
I am accredited in the Netherlands and have three years of professional experience. My strength lies in uncovering inner patterns, supporting self-insight, and guiding people toward greater balance, agency, and authenticity in their lives. Together with my clients, I create an open and safe space where thoughts and emotions can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step toward change requires courage—I am here to support that process.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
