About David
David Morris is a licensed counselor with 27 years of experience who uses a direct, person-focused approach to help people through hard times. He practices Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through what matters most to them.
He helps people facing addictions and substance concerns, as well as those working through relationship struggles and intimacy-related issues. He also supports people dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, anger, and sleep problems.
Background and approach
Practical coping skills and clearer thinking are often part of his work together with clients. David has long experience addressing grief, trauma and abuse, and long-term mood conditions such as bipolar disorder. He also focuses on career stress, life purpose, and problems that grow out of blended families, infidelity, or jealousy.
Process addictions like gambling or pornography are also within his scope of concern. His style is straightforward and collaborative. He listens first, helps set realistic goals, and uses CBT techniques when patterns of thought or behavior are getting in the way.
Client-Centered Therapy guides how he responds in sessions, keeping the conversation focused on each person's experience. Sessions are offered to people in Ohio and are conducted in English. He works with adults on a range of challenges including compassion fatigue, ADHD, aging and geriatric issues, fatherhood concerns, hospice and end-of-life counseling, intellectual disability, paranoia, personality disorders, phobias, and commitment issues.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and following the client’s lead. Online sessions using this approach give space for people to describe their experience and decide what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep problems.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and collaborate on whether Client-Centered conversations, CBT exercises, or a mix fits best. That process helps tailor the work to each person’s needs rather than applying one fixed method.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer discussions. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and messaging can support brief check-ins, ongoing reflection, or homework between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping a steady therapeutic process.
