About David
David Hopkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical, day-to-day strategies for work and wellbeing. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, anger, grief, and depression. David aims to make the first step toward change feel doable and supported.
He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to shape sessions. That means conversations are goal-focused and skills-based, with attention to thoughts, behaviors, and coping tools. Sessions include concrete steps people can try between meetings.
David adapts his approach to each person. He listens for what matters most and builds a plan around those priorities. Respect, sensitivity, and compassion guide how he works in the room.
Over eight years as a Licensed Professional Counselor, he has worked with many common struggles related to mood and behavior. He also addresses relationship patterns such as attachment and abandonment concerns, and life stressors like caregiving strain, money issues, and separation.
People often come for help with loneliness, impulse control, body image, guilt, or finding purpose. David focuses on practical skills to reduce distress and improve functioning at work and in daily life. If you want straightforward support and a plan tailored to your needs, he helps people take the next step.
CBT and DBT approaches for online work and wellbeing
David uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT sessions often involve setting goals, practicing new skills, and trying small experiments between meetings to see what works.He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT-style tools can help when emotions feel intense or reactions become impulsive.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, needs, and everyday routines. Plans are adjusted as progress unfolds so the approach fits the person, not the other way around.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, shorten check-ins when needed, and reduce commute time so people can focus on real-life application of skills. Licensed professionals can help translate CBT and DBT tools into steps that work inside the routines of work and family life.
