About me

I am licensed in New Mexico with 16 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, & bipolar disorder. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I have worked hand in hand with children and adults with serious mental health and problematic drug use. I have worked extensively with individuals with severe trauma and abuse. I have also run several domestic violence programs and am very familiar with the struggles that interpersonal family violence brings to the family. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

David’s been an absolute blessing for a very dynamic time in my life. He’s helped me navigate my thoughts and emotions, relationships and aspirations, and he’s helped me make sense of things in ways that I couldn’t on my own.

David is an excellent therapist. He is caring and compassionate and a good listener. He has helped me to explore my own feelings and find my own value. He is a great therapist.

Written on Sep 12, 2023 after therapy with David for 4 months on issues concerning depression, grief, self esteem, and career difficulties

David was able to help me start to realize things about myself that I think I was trying to stay away from, and it definitely helped me for the better. His approach is a bit forward, but I think that’s appropriate for the situation that I was in. I really was able to understand and carry out the changes David suggested and I think others can benefit from having his assistance as well!
