About David
David Griffin helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, depression, and big life changes. He names clear, everyday problems like communication struggles, control issues, loneliness, workplace stress, and questions about life purpose. David is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida and brings 11 years of practice to sessions.
David keeps sessions straightforward and practical. He uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors.
How David works
He focuses on small steps clients can try between sessions to see real change over time. In the room he aims to build a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can speak honestly about what is hard. He listens for patterns that keep problems stuck and offers simple strategies to shift those patterns.
Work often includes practicing new communication and problem-solving skills. David also addresses issues like forgiveness, self-love, social anxiety and phobia, and the challenges men can face in midlife. He helps people sort priorities and set realistic goals toward a more balanced life.
Sessions are collaborative and centered on what each person wants to get out of therapy. People who choose David can expect a direct, compassionate approach. He explains methods plainly and checks in about how things are going.
His aim is to help clients leave each session with at least one concrete idea to try before the next meeting.

How CBT fits into online therapy
David uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a core approach. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors in everyday life. It often focuses on anxiety, depression, social anxiety and workplace stress by breaking problems into manageable steps and practicing alternatives.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. David will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then recommend CBT strategies or adjustments that fit. This is a collaborative process and plans are revisited as things change.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and have deeper conversation. Phone sessions may be easier when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support, or fitting therapy into a busy day. These formats make it easier to attend sessions from different places and schedules while keeping the focus on practical work and progress.
