About David

He meets individuals who are coping with depression, low self-esteem, relationship or intimacy concerns, grief, parenting strains, or career uncertainty. David works in English and can also communicate in Dutch, German and Italian to varying degrees.
He is listed with the NCPS and has nine years' experience. David uses an integrative style that adapts to each person.
How David works
Sessions focus on what the client wants to change and practical steps to try between meetings. He blends client-centred listening with techniques drawn from cognitive and dialectical approaches where useful. Conversations are meant to be direct and down-to-earth rather than full of jargon.
He has helped people deal with abandonment, attachment concerns, codependency and communication problems. He also supports those coping with cancer, caregiver stress, or the fallout of separation and divorce. Work can include understanding patterns from the past and developing new coping skills for everyday life.
David pays attention to highly sensitive people and to parents feeling strained by raising children who need extra support. He can help people who are wrestling with procrastination, motivation problems, anger or career-related choices. His counselling aims to help clients make clear, manageable changes.
Practical access is important to his practice. Sessions can take place by video, phone, live chat or text messaging, and are organised so people can fit therapy around work and family commitments. The first step is a short questionnaire and a scheduling choice to match with his availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
David blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques to help people tackle everyday struggles. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, building trust and helping people find their own solutions; it is useful for those needing acceptance and clearer self-understanding. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and provides practical exercises to change them, which can help with anxiety, low mood and motivation problems. He also draws on dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) skills when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are central concerns, offering straightforward tools for managing strong feelings.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then agree on a plan that combines listening and practical steps. Clients and the therapist collaborate on which techniques to try and when to adapt them.
Online therapy with him is available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Video sessions work well for in-depth conversation and visual cues, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in, live chat suits people who prefer typed conversation in real time, and messaging can support ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
