David Perkins is great, and highly recommend him. He helped me overcome a lot of anxious tendencies by teaching me about coping methodologies and also simply providing me awareness that suffering from anxiety is common and can be treated.
Verified patient
David was extremely welcoming and professional throughout our sessions. I would reccommend him to anyone in a bit of a funk or dealing within some heavier life issues as I found his aproach, demanor and techniques very helpful over the 6months we spent working together. Thank you David!

More about David W. Perkins, LCSW

Please note you will be charged the full appointment fee if you cancel within 48 hours of a scheduled appointment. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Committment Therapy (ACT) and EMDR treatment of people suffering from mood disorders including anxiety, depression, and bipolar as well as OCD, phobias and symptoms of PTSD that are interfering with functioning. I help people increase psychological flexibility which allows full and vital engagement in life. I work with a diversity of people and am particularly familiar with the legal profession (I worked in this industry for over 30 years), the LGBTQ community, the performing arts community and with people in the 12 step recovery process. I also enjoy working with people who are going through transitions and want support for making changes in their lives. My treatment approach is evidence based, structured and results-oriented and is generally shorter term in duration than psychoanalytical treatment. Psychotherapy appointments are generally weekly at the same time. Please do not make an initial appointment for an intake unless you are able to meet weekly at that time. When I post an appointment it means that slot is available for a regular weekly appointment. Usually we start out meeting weekly, then biweekly once initial goals are met.
