Great to meet you!

Hey there! Thank you for visiting my profile, and welcome! There are many reasons one may to turn to therapy. Maybe you are experiencing a change or loss, maybe you have gone through an event that has affected your mental health, or maybe it’s just that something doesn't feel right or someone doesn't treat you well. I like to say “the breadcrumbs make the bread" - it is the little things that add up.

A bit about my approach to therapy

It is important not only to recognize what is going on, but also to explore the “why” behind your current experience. I use an eclectic approach and encourage taking an intentional, inward-focused perspective to gain insight on that “why” and create pathways toward change and healing. If you think this approach sounds like a good fit for you, please feel free to reach out to me.

David's style is
