About David

David Robertson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Georgia with 10 years of experience. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, relationship and intimacy concerns, and problems with self-esteem. He also supports people coping with addictions, ADHD, career changes, and compassion fatigue.

David uses straightforward, practical approaches in sessions. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. He also uses client-centered and mindfulness methods to slow down reactions and build clearer choices.

Sessions focus on concrete steps that can change daily routines. He works on specific skills such as thought records, behavioral experiments, communication techniques, and short mindfulness practices. Conversations aim to clarify problems and try small changes between meetings.

David trained in social work, earning a Master of Social Work from Stony Brook University, and holds the credentials LCSW and CSW. He has worked across settings and with a range of life situations common after trauma, illness, caregiving, or major transitions.

He practices in Georgia and provides care in English. Before booking, people should confirm the current session options and scheduling details. To begin, clients complete a matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How his approaches work in online sessions

David commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT focuses on concrete steps such as tracking thoughts and testing small behavior changes to see what helps with anxiety, low mood, or relationship patterns.

He also uses client-centered therapy to listen without directing and to help people clarify their own goals. Mindfulness therapy appears in short practices that teach noticing tension and bringing attention back to the present moment for clearer decisions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. He will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day demands. That choice can shift as progress is made or needs change.

Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when time is tight. Discuss scheduling and format details during the matching steps so sessions fit practical routines.
