Counseling is not one-size-fits-all. My approach is to allow the client to tell their story in an open, judgement-free environment creating a safe and trusting connection with treatment designed according to what makes sense to you. Whether you need assistance in processing your experiences, have a specific problem/habit, are seeking general growth, or simply need support and a trusting connection. I offer short and long-term treatment designed to work with you and your unique situation and experiences.

Life is a journey for all of us and people seek therapy for a variety of reasons. My work is about helping you address whatever challenges are getting in the way of you living as your fullest self. Therapy with me is an active and collaborative exploration of your mostly unconscious internal world- the beliefs and feelings that unknowingly drive you in life. Together we create a space for you to better know and understand yourself so that you can make thoughtful, responsive, and sustainable changes.

From struggling to THRIVING. Become more fully "yourself." Enjoy relationship satisfaction. Strengthen connection to something bigger that is meaningful. Get relief from depression and anxiety (really!). Improve effectiveness at work. Feel more at home in your body, content. Mindful and present. LAUGH. Choosing a therapist that is both really good AND a great fit is important. There is a difference here you will experience from the get go. The office is in a 1930's Cape Cod style house...inviting & comfortable. With warmth and character. David is unusually relational and "real." Sessions are 60, 75 or 90 minutes rather than 50.

As a therapist, I take your therapy needs seriously. I use a variety of interventions and therapeutic modalities to develop a full sense of self and comfort within yourself. Being culturally diverse and allowing my clients to heal from their own realms, whether spiritually or culturally, is at the heart of who I am.

I can help you rewire your brain and improve your life. Is your life, or your relationship, not quite where you want it to be? Are you feeling stuck or misunderstood? Are you struggling with anxiety, codependency, depression, PTSD, or grief? Do you feel as if your past trauma is negatively impacting your current life? If so, I can help. As an expert in individual and couple counseling, I’m deeply passionate about helping people improve their relationships, enhance their emotional well-being, break free of anxiety and depression, discover their strengths, and re-empower their lives.

My experience serving couples, individuals, and families for the past decade, along with my education in relationship therapy, has shown me the immense power of relationships- with ourselves, significant others, and with nature- for personal growth and self-actualization. Working as a wilderness therapist has only solidified this view for me. I practice relationship therapy as well as life and relationship coaching. My role is to guide you in achieving the personal and relational growth you are looking for. Let's work together to create a healthy relationship and a nourishing and joyful existence out of your life.
