Great to meet you!

My name is Dr. David Shepard and I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in both California and Texas. I work with individual adults via telehealth. I am also a Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional, and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional. When it comes to therapy, I tailor therapy to each individual with respect to their cultural backgrounds, and their intersecting identities that they bring into the therapeutic relationship.

My approach to therapy

I work with individual adults and specialize in anxiety, depression, anger issues, relationship challenges, intimacy/sexual health, life transitions, sexuality/LGBTQ+, and identity/self-esteem issues. My therapeutic approach is integrative, multicultural focused, collaborative, and strength based. I frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy to help support clients reach their therapy goals.

What you can expect from me

Every session I strive to create a safe space for clients to feel seen, heard, understood, respected and supported. Within this safe space, I work collaboratively with clients for them to have a different experience of themselves, thereby creating opportunities of growth and change.
