I'm so glad you are here. My practice offers an individualized approach that focuses on empowering you. Is life filled with stress? Do you feel anxious, unhappy, or just exhausted all the time? Trauma and wounds impact all of us, and repair work is a process. Feeling stuck in the past or a painful experience is something that does not have to be the way you walk through the world. I believe that healing takes place when we feel understood. My hope is to guide you through a process with gaining a sense of control on your journey and to create an upward momentum. I have found my style works best by listening to reflect your experience, exploring and understanding the root cause of your concerns, collaborating to establish a shared purpose, and developing a plan that supports your goals. It's wonderful that you've taken this first step. I'd love to learn more about what you're needing and see if we may be a good fit to work together. My practice offers both day and evening hours. Please reach out to connect.

Hi, I’m David Sorrells, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) providing virtual therapy for adults in Texas and Colorado. I specialize in Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and help people who feel overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally stuck, burned out, disconnected from themselves, or trapped in painful relationship and life patterns. Many of my clients struggle with overthinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, shame, or feeling like they always have to hold everything together alone. My approach is warm, grounded, collaborative, and deeply compassionate. I believe healing happens when we learn how to relate to ourselves with curiosity instead of judgment. Together, we’ll work to better understand the different parts of you, build emotional resilience, and help you feel more calm, confident, connected, and authentic in your daily life. Before returning to private practice, I spent years leading teams in the corporate and tech world, so I understand firsthand the stress of high-pressure environments, burnout, identity shifts, and trying to succeed while caring for your mental and emotional well-being. I strive to create a space where you can show up fully as yourself without fear of judgment. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, LGBTQ+ concerns, relationship issues, life transitions, or spiritual questions, therapy can become a place of healing, clarity, and meaningful transformation.
