Hi! I'm David and I'm a licensed therapist in the states of Indiana & Tennessee. I have a broad range of experiences in mental health, with a wide variety of people served. I love helping people find hope, find their way and help them on their road to a better life; helping people discover what works for them and their own answers for what matters to them. Over the years I've worked extensively with young people and adults with depression, anxiety, anger, hopelessness, doubt, grief, fear and a host of transitional issues. I don't believe in a one size fits all therapy, so I use an eclectic comfortable style, that provides kindness, compassion, direction, hope and caring, While we work through issues we set a course with goals and objectives to help build hope today and success as we move forward. I like to provide supportive insight, developing understanding and reaching short-term goals as we work towards long-term goals. The goal is for you to experience a sense of hope and support, while helping you identify your goals and a clear sense of how to achieve them. I look forward to meeting you!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 22 years of experience counseling primarily adults in the state of Indiana. I believe in the practice of "unconditional positive regard," meaning I will never be judgmental or shaming during my time with you. Instead, I will be sincere, engaging, supportive and encouraging you in your journey towards a better you. My experience in counseling includes those with Depression, Grief, Bipolar Disorder, Anxiety, ADHD, Relationship issues, Abuse (sexual and domestic), Shame-based Family of Origin issues, Co-Dependency, and Addictions. In therapy I use a blend of Adlerian and Cognitive Behavioral therapies, which focuses on how our thinking, feeling, and behavior can drive dysfunctional living, and conversely, how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors can be changed to produce a healthier, productive lifestyle. To that end, in addition to talk therapy, I use didactic, experiential, and the use of parables to help facilitate your progress. The use of "homework" I find keeps clients engaged in the therapy process while not in session. If you choose to work with me, together we will make a plan of treatment based on your goals for seeking treatment, and I will walk with you every step of the way. I am fully aware you have tried everything else before walking through the virtual door and I respect you for your courage in seeking help at this time.

Your story matters. Your life has value. You are worth it. Seeking help through life's difficulties can be daunting. It can, at times, also be met with some disapproval from family members and friends who don't understand the position that you are in or the struggles you face. I want to acknowledge your bravery in taking this step to prioritize your mental health. It isn't easy, but I can assure you it will be worth it. A little about myself: I am passionate about helping others seek out health and wholeness in their lives. I currently practice as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Indiana. In my 8 years of clinical experience I have worked in multiple settings (community based mental health, in-home therapy for adults and children, outpatient therapy) and have experience with a variety of mental health concerns. These include: depression, anxiety, eating disorders, ADHD, ASD, substance abuse, trauma, and more. I like to utilize an individualized, solution-focused approach to assist the in dealing with these issues. I also enjoy working with individuals who may not have a specific mental health diagnosis, but can benefit from processing family dynamics, difficult work situations, life transitions, grief, stresses of life, childhood wounds... the list goes on. Sometimes it's helpful to gain an outside perspective on things to bring insight, clarity, and direction to difficult situations. Your personal comfort and emotional safety is of utmost importance to me. I truly believe that the most important aspect of counseling is the therapeutic relationship. I desire that our times together would be free of shame and judgement, and that you would have the freedom to express yourself and explore the issues that have brought you to this point. Feel free to send me a message if you'd like- we can chat before you commit to a session with me. I truly look forward to hearing from and working with you.

My therapeutic approach is strength based with a multitude of therapeutic techniques that are guided and individualized to the needs of my clients. I have extensive trainings in trauma, substance abuse, cognitive behavioral therapy, family and play therapy. I believe mental health therapy helps the client find a balance between their mind, body, emotional and social factors in their life, so that they can function at their highest potential. I enjoy arts and crafts, games, and Legos. I especially love animals and have utilized several therapeutic animals in my work. I am amazed regularly with how intuitive animals can be and their ability to provide therapeutic relief. I genuinely enjoy what I do and feel privileged to learn about human nature daily and to have clients that are willing to share not only their struggles but also their triumphs in session.
