About David
David Kurfman is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Indiana with 35 years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, addictions, and relationship and family concerns. He also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, ADHD, and mood or panic challenges.
He uses straightforward conversation to help people name what’s happening and find practical ways to respond. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that increase frustration or anger. He helps people build clearer boundaries, rehearse different responses, and reduce impulsive reactions.
David draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what a person says, so they feel heard and can clarify goals. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that feed anger or anxiety. He also brings elements of Psychodynamic and Solution-Focused Therapy to trace patterns and set small, achievable steps forward.
People who are wrestling with guilt, shame, emptiness, or forgiveness can work on the emotions behind their behavior. Those coping with adoption and foster care issues, intellectual disability, or compassion fatigue can address the practical strains these create. Sessions aim to make problem-solving more concrete and usable in daily life.
He accepts international clients and offers sessions in English. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
David commonly combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. Client-Centered Therapy involves listening closely and reflecting what a person says so goals become clearer; it helps people name feelings like anger or shame. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anger, anxiety, or panic attacks.He may also draw on Psychodynamic ideas to notice long-standing patterns and on Solution-Focused Therapy to set short, practical steps. Finding the right mix is part of the work. He will collaborate with the client to choose approaches that match the client’s needs, goals, and preferences rather than imposing a single method.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten some check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also allow a person to continue therapy while living outside Indiana, since he accepts international clients. Licensed professionals adapt pacing and tasks so sessions remain practical and focused on everyday changes.
