About David
I take a no-nonsense approach to human issues, using the best science available. I find that my patients tend to want real solutions, not gimmicks. I work with adults exclusively, focusing on recovery from all forms of trauma, with an emphasis on restoring neurological damage, reversing emotional dysregulation, improving damaged relational dynamics, and creating an authored life.

What clients say
- “While I've only had 2 sessions with David, I have felt heard, understood, cared for, and I know I am in kind hands. I appreciate that David can joke around but takes healing seriously. I believe because he stays well-informed with new research/science, he appropriately adjusts his tactics and explanations and is therefore trustworthy. I am very excited to see where my healing work takes me with David's insight, gentle humor, and empathetic guidance.”
