About David
David Powell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 12 years of practice. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, addictions, grief, trauma, ADHD, and a wide range of life stresses.
He focuses on clear, practical sessions. Conversations aim to identify what is not working and try small, testable changes. He uses conversational methods rather than lengthy jargon. Clients can expect direct talk about patterns, behaviors, and choices that affect daily life.
David draws from Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work focused on each person's goals. He also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice thinking patterns and test new ways of responding. Emotionally-Focused ideas are used when relationship or intimacy issues are central.
Beyond those core approaches, he brings Jungian perspectives and mindfulness practices when imagery, meaning, or attention skills help a person shift long-standing problems. Motivational Interviewing methods are used when people want help with change but feel stuck or ambivalent.
Sessions are practical and goal-oriented. David frames therapy as collaborative problem solving rather than abstract analysis. He works with common life problems such as career stress, parenting strain, sleeping and eating difficulties, caregiving burdens, and coping after loss. The style is straightforward and focused on making everyday life more manageable.
BHow sessions work
How therapeutic approaches fit into online sessions
David uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations focused on a person's goals and priorities; this approach emphasizes listening and adapting interventions to what the client says they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and to try practical experiments that can reduce anxiety, low mood, or problematic habits. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is applied when relationship and intimacy concerns are central, helping people notice emotional patterns and practice different ways of connecting.Finding the right approach is part of the work. David will discuss options with each person and decide together which methods feel most useful for their situation, goals, and preferences. That collaborative selection can change over time as progress is made.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow quicker check-ins on a lunch break, and reduce travel time. Some formats may also let people choose shorter or phone-only conversations when that better fits their day. Check the appointment options offered when you schedule to see which format is available.
