What should a new client know about working with you?
We will work together in a setting made safe through empathic listening and supportive interactions. We will explore actual experiences with significant others and/or work colleagues to advance our understanding of what it means to take responsibility for our actions and advancing our sense of empowerment through acknowledging our own agency.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
A typical session can involve an exploration of current anxiety concerns; an examination of an interaction with a partner that has led to a disruptive fight; reviewing feelings and reactions to the dating scene; or a focus on past trauma. All sessions emphasize empathic listening and being present for support and insight.

I’d be wary of working with David. Not very understanding and not very helpful in my experience. I felt judged and disrespected by David.

David was warm and present in seeking to understand my whole story. His warmth and empathy come across strongly and he asked great questions that helped me a lot with my anxiety. I’ve had other therapists-he is by far the best.
