About David

David Morris is an Ohio-licensed professional counselor (LPCC) with 27 years of experience. He focuses on helping people navigate addiction, mood concerns, anxiety, and the daily stresses that wear people down. He aims to make the first step toward change feel less overwhelming and more manageable.

He uses a client-centered approach that emphasizes listening and building trust. Sessions are conversational and grounded in the client’s priorities. This approach helps people feel heard and respected while they sort through difficult feelings and choices.

Background and approach

David also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. He helps people learn practical skills to shift unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. That work can be useful for managing anxiety, depression, sleeping problems, and ADHD-related challenges.

Over nearly three decades he has supported people dealing with grief, trauma, relationship strain, and addiction. He also addresses career stress, anger, intimacy issues, and caregiving or hospice-related concerns. His experience includes a wide range of emotional and behavioral problems.

In sessions he focuses on clear, achievable goals and steady progress. People can expect straightforward conversations, skill-building, and planning for real-life changes. The aim is practical relief and clearer next steps, not jargon or long theoretical talks.

Approaches That Guide Online Sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful connection. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what they say, and helps them put words to their experience. This approach can help people feel understood and more willing to try new ways of coping.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often uses short exercises, thought records, and behavior testing to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and address sleeping or attention-related difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with the person to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. Conversations are collaborative and focus on what fits the person’s needs and preferences.

Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a work break or require less bandwidth, and chat or messaging work well for brief check-ins and ongoing skill practice. These options make it easier to get consistent support around busy schedules and varied life demands.
