How his approaches translate to online sessions
David commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot patterns of thinking and behavior that cause distress, then practices specific skills to change them. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, addiction patterns, and sleep issues.He also works from a client-centered stance, which focuses on careful listening and helping the person set their own goals. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when emotional regulation and coping strategies are needed; DBT offers concrete tools for handling strong feelings and improving communication.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with clients to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjusts plans based on how skills transfer into daily life.
