Hi there, I'm David!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in the treatment of males/men in mental health. I specialize in the treatment of problem gambling and other compulsive behaviors. I have experience in working with all types of issues as they relate to self-esteem, motivation, depression, anxiety, and addiction.

My focus

I work well with people struggling with problem gambling or substance abuse. I also support teens and high schoolers experiencing depression and anxiety.

My approach

I use cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing to address your concerns. I explore your whole environment and how it affects the presenting problem. We work collaboratively, and I take a harm-reduction approach that meets you where you are.
