About David
David Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 24 years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people facing relationship strain, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. He aims to create a respectful, direct, and practical space where clients can talk through pressing problems and build clearer plans for change.
He commonly addresses parenting and family challenges, anger and stress, addiction concerns, and issues around intimacy and grief.
Background and approach
He also works with people dealing with bipolar disorder, ADHD, eating struggles, and career-related stress. His practice includes attention to aging and caregiver strain when those concerns come up. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs.
David uses straightforward conversation and goal-focused steps to reduce unhelpful patterns. He helps people notice thoughts and behaviors that get in the way and then practices small changes that add up over time. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide sessions.
That means looking at how thoughts affect mood and testing practical strategies, while also identifying what is already working and building on it. He personalizes techniques rather than relying on one fixed method. People who prefer a calm, practical approach tend to fit well with his style.
He emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and clear communication. If you want help sorting a specific problem and making an actionable plan, he works to make the steps manageable and realistic.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
David uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on how thoughts and behaviors influence mood and helps people test new ways of thinking and acting to reduce distress. He also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which highlights current strengths and small, practical steps to move toward specific goals.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. He will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past, then tailor methods to fit each person's needs. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are made as progress is tracked.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and deeper discussion, phone sessions can fit a busy day or lower bandwidth needs, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text messaging lets people share thoughts between sessions. These options help people fit counseling into work, caregiving, and other routines while keeping focus on practical change.
