About David
David Morris is an Ohio licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with 27 years of experience. He helps people dealing with addictions, relationship strain, low self-esteem, depression, stress, anxiety, and anger. He works with clients who are facing grief, trauma, sleep problems, career stress, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and other life changes.
David aims for straightforward sessions where people can name what is happening and talk through it. He uses a client-centered stance so the person sets the pace. He also uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try new ways of responding.
In practice he focuses on concrete problems such as coping with drug and alcohol addiction, process addictions, infidelity, jealousy, and commitment worries. He also supports people navigating fatherhood issues, blended family challenges, aging and geriatric matters, and hospice or end-of-life concerns. Many clients come with work stress, burnout, or compassion fatigue.
Sessions typically look at patterns that trigger anger or escalate conflict. He helps people learn actions and words that reduce reactivity and rebuild connection. He also spends time on practical skills for sleep, mood, and daily functioning.
David describes the start of counseling as a step toward clearer choices. He asks questions, listens without judgment, and offers straightforward tools from his clinical approaches. The focus is on what the person wants to change and how to take small, realistic steps toward that.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and letting the client set the pace. Online sessions using this approach still center on the person's concerns and priorities, with the therapist asking questions and reflecting what the client says to help them think things through.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) concentrates on identifying thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. Online CBT typically uses brief exercises, thought records, and action plans that clients can try between sessions to address anger, stress, mood, or sleep problems.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. He collaborates with each person to decide whether more client-centered work or CBT techniques fit best based on goals and what they want to change. The plan can shift as needs evolve and progress is reviewed together.
