David Sullivan, LCPC, LPC

David Sullivan is a licensed counselor with more than two decades of experience in mental health. He uses straightforward, practical conversation to help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about their next step. He talks with clients about stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, grief, and the kinds of life changes that happen in midlife.

He holds an M.A. in Counseling and a Master of Divinity, and he holds the LCPC and LPC credentials. David draws from several approaches but emphasizes techniques that help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns. He also uses mindfulness and solution-focused ideas to make progress feel concrete and doable.

Sessions are focused on the goals the client brings. David helps clients develop clearer boundaries, manage symptoms like anxiety and depression, and build plans for career or lifestyle changes. He also supports people working through trauma, substance concerns, parenting stress, and intimacy-related struggles.

Clients from many regions are mentioned in his background as places he has worked with, including the United States and several international areas. He notes less experience with LGBTQ clients and aims to be respectful of each person’s values and beliefs without imposing his own.

His style is direct and collaborative. David aims to help clients pause, reflect, and make small changes that add up. People who want practical steps and plain language guidance often find this approach helpful.

Approaches used in online sessions and how they help

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s goals guide the work; this helps people clarify values and decide what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm during stressful moments.

Finding the best approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration includes checking what is working and adjusting the plan as progress happens.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people continue work when they are living in different regions, which the therapist has experience with internationally. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to remote sessions to focus on practical steps and skills that fit everyday life.
