It may have taken you a long time to start this search for a therapist. This is a first big step for many–one that took courage and self-love. Life can be really rough and sometimes the judgement of our families, society, and culture gets in the way of taking care of our mental health. Free yourself from self-doubt and from racing thoughts that may take over your daily activities and affect your relationships.

My name is David Berk, LCSW My approach to therapy is relationship and strength based, while maintaining the person centered theme throughout the interaction with the person. While there are many approaches to therapy process, I attempt to utilize approaches that appropriately apply to the particular case/person/couple situation. As, one approach or problem solving method does not apply to everyone.

As a therapist, I know how important it is to create a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship. I also know that taking that first step to getting help can be intimidating. I offer a nonjudgemental and empathetic approach to therapy to help people discover the strength they have within. I have experience working with a wide range of mental health struggles, cultures, LGBTQ+ identified individuals, and ages. I help people set small, attainable goals to build confidence and make changes that get one closer to their idea of peace and happiness.

You long to wake up in the morning less anxious and depressed, or you're just feeling stressed-out and stuck. Maybe pain from infidelity consumes you but you want to fix what's broken rather than throwing in the towel. Deep down, you want to feel excited about your life and I want that for you too. I can help you untangle the knotted threads of your life and create something beautiful. If you've tried therapy before but felt something was missing (maybe too much listening and not enough tools or direction), let's do it differently this time so you have both the knowledge & insights but also the skills to create your best life.

The future of psychotherapy is with psychedelics. I have dedicated my life to bringing these tools above ground. I come to this meaningful work with integrity, heartfelt curiosity, and humility after witnessing how transformative psychedelics can be for individuals. I see healing and human connection as an essential aspect of what’s needed for our planet right now and nothing gives me more joy than to see people discovering their vitality and passion for life again. I currently work with ketamine and I also offer support to individuals dabbling with psychedelics and microdosing, providing risk reduction and integration.
