About David

David Yadush is a licensed professional counselor in California with LPCC and LPC credentials and eight years of clinical experience. He focuses on concerns such as LGBT issues, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood disorders, self-esteem, relationship challenges, sleep problems, career decisions, and coping with life changes. He also addresses compassion fatigue and coaching-style goals.

He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness approaches. Sessions tend to focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and patterns, trying small behavior changes, and building practical skills for everyday stress. He also incorporates motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas when those methods fit a client's goals.

David works with people dealing with chronic pain, illness, or disability and with questions around gender dysphoria, sexuality, guilt and shame, and life purpose. He helps break large problems into manageable steps and sets concrete goals for coping and decision-making.

In sessions he emphasizes collaboration. He listens to what matters most and helps clients try out new responses to old habits. Expect short-term skill building as well as space for deeper reflection when needed.

He practices in California and conducts sessions in English. For practical next steps, the intake process asks you to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button. Payment varies by location and uses a cancellable subscription model.

How his approaches translate to online work

David commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach works well for anxiety, mood issues, sleep problems, and stress management. Client-Centered Therapy supports a respectful, listening-focused stance that helps people feel understood while they set goals. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to decide which approaches match their goals and preferences, and adjustments are made as progress and needs change.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available session types before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people use different modes of communication to practice skills in everyday settings while working with a licensed professional.
