David is a licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and has been working in the psychology field since 1996, with over 20 years of treating clients. There is a zen saying, “when the student is ready, the teacher will appear.” You are ready to start to heal. Using a short-term brief reality therapy model influenced by Motivational Interviewing (MI), Core Focus Therapy (CFT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), with a high emphasis on client choice, David helps clients focus on opportunities and growth. David has experience treating mental health, opiate addiction, and substance dependence.
David holds a Psychology B.S. from Westminster College and a Counseling M.S. from the University of Phoenix. With diverse experience, from child play therapy to adult inpatient units, he served as a psychiatric medical assistant for 4 years at Intermountain Health Care. He also contributed to Aetna's behavioral health programs.
David looks forward to working with you on a chosen pathway to healing. “You are one decision away from changing your life. There is hope. I can help. Schedule now and let’s talk.” - David E Ward BS, MC, CMHC
