Hi, my name is David Mitchell. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Michigan with 10 years experience helping clients work through various challenges. I have extensive experience helping individuals with housing challenges, drug and alcohol addiction, families of an addicted person, crisis management, and helping neurodivergent individuals adjust to life challenges. I also have the ability to help clients with common concerns like: various types of anxiety, depression, life changes and life direction concerns. I have extended training in men's issues like: anger, lust, affairs, and pornography use. I have been told by my superiors in my early work settings that I make a good partner for female clients. I have a gentle encouraging style with an ability to clarify complicated issues and build a solid relationship. I have also faired well with working with older adults. My wife tells me I should have been born in a different generation. I relate to the older generations because I value hard work, live by my values, and like to sacrifice for my family and closest friends. My main passion for my work on Better Help is to help clients integrate their faith into their therapy. As a person who has worked with individuals in really difficult circumstances I know that life can be really challenging and we could all benefit from believing that God cares about our unique circumstances. I became a Christian in my college years and went to seminary twice to find my life direction. I am very happy today that I get to help people work through their mental health challenges and have the opportunity to have those spiritual discussions that sometimes come up in therapy. If you are considering trying therapy with me on Better Help I would want you to know that I care about my clients deeply. I think of my work as more than a job. I want the best for each of my clients. I strive to be knowledgeable, professional, and encouraging in all situations. I would look forward to getting to know you and seeing how we could work together.

I am an LMSW Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Graduate Certificate in Drug and Alcohol Abuse Studies. I have experience working with people who have lost loved ones and are now going through the roller coaster of grief looking for support. I also provide support with older adults who may experience social isolation. During our time together I hope to provide an open mind with a cool and calm presence. This is a non-judgemental zone. I understand that in stressful times all someone may need is a listening ear. A little about me; I am a huge animal lover and would not know what to do without my dog and cats. I love being outside walking my dog and going on runs. I believe that being active can be extremely therapeutic. I also enjoy helping coach people and encourage them to achieve their personal goals.

I’ve guided thousands of clients in their struggles with depression, postpartum depression, parenting stressors, premarital counseling, marriage counseling, affair healing, life transitions, self esteem, dynamics with extended family, anxiety, divorce recovery, identity crisis, etc. My warmth and compassion has proven to offer comfort, support and hope while guiding my clients in the direction of higher self-awareness, empowerment and autonomy. I believe in my clients until they believe in themself. My passion in life is people and there is no bigger honor than being one of the few people in the world that gets to witness people in their most vulnerable states. I help lead clients towards radical acceptance of self and others. When people feel seen non-judgmentally, they feel loved and regulated. And when you feel loved, you can do anything.
