About David
Individuals I have successfully worked with have come from diverse populations of all ages who have been diagnosed with a wide range of minor to severe mental health and medical diagnoses, including anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, PTSD, ADHD/ADD, personality disorders, grief, relationship problems, and substance use disorders. I am trauma and disability specialized, I know how to treat trauma, distress, and mental health symptoms following The Path of Least Resistance, using either hands on and/or hands off discussing past trauma/history treatment approaches.
I specialize in many treatment modalities including CBT, NLP, mindfulness, psychodynamic, person-centered, Christian Counseling, and trauma-informed care. Environments I have worked in include MH clinics, child and family services, substance use clinics, refugee shelters, Catholic Health, nursing homes, tele-counseling, and an Independent Living Center.

Treatment philosophy & approaches
I help clients to find the Path of Least Resistance to Full Recovery, the fastest most efficient way of getting from point A at present to point B Full Recovery, with the least amount of effort, energy expenditure, and added distress, to secure a healthy relationship with the self, others, and the world around us and to be in overall conscious control of your thinking, feeling, and behavior. I use many neuropsychology based mindfulness practices to help clients access what neurology calls in scientific studies the Oneness Center of the Brain, containing our highest level of human consciousness, related to more powerful emotions like Love, Joy, Bliss, Peace and Interconnectedness with one's self, others, and the world around us and greater overall understanding and executive functioning.
