About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Indiana with 20 years of experience. I have worked with people of all ages challenged by depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, and PTSD. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as I believe it is the safest and effective model for Tele-Therapy. I also have training and experience working with people from other countries and cultures.
When working with clients it is important to make the therapy experience genuine, positive, respectful, and safe. I believe that you have many strengths that will assist you in your therapy. You have taken the first step, now make the second step and contact me.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for David Swineheart. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Dave has been an exceptional help to me and my mental health, especially dealing with past trauma that I didn't realize was that big of a deal. I have seen a lot of growth since working with him.

Everything’s great

My time with David has been helpful, I am comfortable talking with him and have been able to examine and order my thoughts. Also to begin planning for a future I had not been able to look at with interest for a few years.

David took the time to discover who I was what issues I was having and addresses me as a person and not as a broken person and non judgemental way. He has offered his thoughts and has helped with my understanding that we are deserving and we are not perfect but worthy. He prays when we end our session and I am so thankful he was assigned to me

It's wonderful to have a therapist who also prays with me and for me!
