David has a very diverse background. In addition to Masters in Mental Health Counseling, he has a Maters in Biology/Biochemistry and worked in Research. David changed fields and worked 25 years as a radiochemist which combined nuclear chemistry and physics.
As a counselor his background has been very beneficial in understanding the processes underlying behavior and mental health. As a result of his work in industry David has good people skills which are essential in working with clients with mental health issues.
David provides an eclectic approach in counseling theory and uses Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Counseling, Schema Therapy and Person-Centered Therapy. He is trained in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback which are good tools to help clients with issues such as depression, anxiety disorders and addiction. David’s initial approach is to develop a trusting relationship with the client. He then works with the client to identify the specific issues. A treatment plan is developed to address these issues. As treatment proceeds this plan may be revised as specific issues come up. When the client completes the plan, he will be reassessed. Depending on the clients progress the client may be discharged with specific goals to work on. If there are still unresolved issues a new treatment plan will be developed and treatment continued. If there are issues that require a different approach David may refer the client to another counselor that specializes in the client’s specific issues.
On a personal level David has three adult children and two grandsons. David was raised in the mountains of Wyoming and has a place south of Jackson Hole which he spends as much time as he can. There his closest neighbors are elk, moose, and wolves. David lives most of the time in Boise. He has been fortunate to have traveled the world a great deal spending time in South East Asia and China. He recently spent time in Tuscany and in Malta.

Written on Feb 23, 2023 after therapy with David for 1 year and 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, self esteem, anger management, and coping with life changes
David was my first therapist, fortunately. I was very reluctant to ask anyone for help. But David's gentle, attentive and intelligent communication put me at ease and allowed me to examine issues in my life without fear. He paid attention to my complex story and responded with empathy and worked hard to find tools that could be used for my personal problems. He also brought his own personal stories into our conversations that made me feel like I was talking to a real person who understands what it's like living in the real world. Even though there are basic procedures and remedies for our human conditions, I didn't feel like I had been given 'cookie cutter' remedies. He was intuitive and taylored his recommendations to fit my personal needs. Though our time together was short, I now feel equipped to intelligently address my life. Thanks David.

I like that he is knowledgeable in a lot of different aspects of life and is able to take things that I've been experiencing from anxiety or PTSD and break them down to a scientific reason why it happens and explains it in a way that makes since. He sends me things to read and watch and see things to learn about ways I am able to make changes. It's learning how to manage and change things I have struggled with but his approach seems to be having a positive effect in my life.

Mr Demorest is very helpful and efficient with his useful advice. Thank you to him from the bottom of my heart. I was in a dark pit of despondency and he showed me wonderful light with tools he offered.

I’ve already recommended David Demorest to a few people I know. I feel so comfortable talking with him and expressing my feelings. I was so nervous just downloading the app, David helped calm my nerves. It’s been an educational experience as well as comforting so far. I’ve only been talking with David for a couple weeks but I feel hopeful, and I haven’t felt hope for years. He’s given me the tools to help control my anxiety which has made a difference in my family as well. I’m so thankful for this app and David!!

David is an excellent listener and he is not pushy or judgmental. I didn’t have a really good experience with my first counsellor but David is really really good.
I feel really comfortable talking to him and he provides variety of methods to help me. He always respect your feelings and opinions.
I’m really glad I have him as my counsellor. He definitely helped me to improve day after day.

I was having a really hard time when I decided to start with this app.
At the beginning I was a bit sceptical about it, but after my first session with David, I saw that there was light in that dark tunel.
I feel comfortable talking about everything, and he is always there ready to help.
I’ve made some improvements thanks to him, but I know i still have a long way to go.
Thanks to David I managed to control my anxiety.
I would definitely recommend him.

David has been very helpful. He is calm and easy going, but at the same time makes it clear that he is there to help. I have participated in counseling before and have a lot of knowledge about self-help strategies, but he has provided tools that I was unaware of. I appreciate how quickly he gets back to me and the practical solutions he offers. He is not pushy or bossy and yet is very helpful and supportive. I would recommend David to anyone.

David Demorest is a wonderful counselor, and I have had plenty to compare him too. He seems genuinely interested in my problems. He is very easy to talk to and gives several ways to do it. Whatever makes you comfortable. He has wide range background so he has many ideas of what can help. To me, when I converse with David it's like I'm talking to my older brother. I cannot say enough about him. I think he is wonderful and very helpful.

I’ve only been working with David for a short period of time, but it has been xtremely eye opening and he really understands my concerns and helps me address them. I appreciate the different approaches David takes to assist me with my struggles. I am slowly making progress, and David constantly checks in on me which I also appreciate very much. Online therapy is definitely a game changer, and for the best, now I am getting to where I would like to be.
