About David
David Evans is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Washington with 20 years of experience. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting problems, addictions, trauma and abuse, and a range of other concerns. David offers practical, problem-focused help that aims to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside approaches such as Reality Therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing and narrative ideas. Sessions emphasize clear goals and concrete steps. That can include identifying thinking patterns, testing new behaviors, and building small skills that fit daily life.
David has worked in private practice and in public health and community settings, giving him a mix of clinical and community experience. He has helped people cope after physical trauma or emotional abuse and supported clients facing career strain, parenting stress, sleep problems, and substance concerns.
Therapy conversations tend to be collaborative and focused on planning practical next steps. He aims to reduce stigma in sessions and keeps the focus on clear actions a person can try between meetings. Expect straightforward discussion of what is working and what to change.
People who prefer concrete techniques and structured problem solving may find this approach useful. Before booking, confirm the current session formats offered to make sure they fit your schedule and needs.
How CBT, Gottman, and Mindfulness translate to online work
David uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors in everyday situations. CBT focuses on concrete experiments and short practical exercises that translate well to remote sessions. The Gottman Method provides structured tools for improving communication and conflict skills, useful when relationship patterns are a main concern. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve sleep or stress management.Choosing the right combination of these approaches is part of the work. David will review goals, preferences, and the immediate problems and then pick methods that fit. Sessions are collaborative - the therapist and client check what helps and adjust the plan as needed.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when days are tight, and remove travel time. Talk with David about what scheduling and session rhythm will work best for your routine so therapy can be practical to use.
