Hello, my name is Dave Tymchyn. I was a returning student in my 30's when I obtained my master’s degree in Social Work at the University at Albany with honors and have obtained and maintained my LCSW for the last 20 years. Over the years I have worked in many areas of human services including working with couples, families and individuals. I have spent a portion of my career working with people with substance use disorders and their families. When working together, I believe in meeting you where you are at, and finding out what you want to accomplish. I believe that mutual respect between myself and you is essential. The goal is to empower you with knowledge and understanding of yourself and how your situations have affected you. There is nothing more fulfilling in this field than to see people’s lives enhanced by overcoming the obstacles that hold them back. I have a history of being devoted to the individuals I care for and I look forward to working with you.

David has been a blessing in my life. We went from strangers chatting about sports and common interests to friends working through issues that I was dealing with. I always looked forward to my weekly sessions with David. He has such a friendly, calming demeanor that just makes me smile. David is understanding and very informative and I highly recommend him to clients of all ages

Mr David is amazing. He brings tears of experience to help me through situations I’m going through, and to help me work towards the person I want to be. While helping me realize how great I am now. He is an amazing human being and great at communicating.

Mr David is an extremely experienced therapist, the worksheets he provided me really helped me cope with my negative belief, anxiety and motivation. The sessions have been very effective compared to therapy I have received in my own country. Big thank you to Mr David :D
