About David
David Stewart is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 20 years of clinical experience. He works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, relationship strain, parenting pressures, trauma, grief, ADHD, and related concerns.
He focuses on practical, conversation-based work. Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented. He helps people notice patterns that cause pain and try new ways of responding in daily life.
David uses a mix of approaches to fit the problem at hand. That can mean looking at how thoughts affect behavior, practicing skills for strong emotions, or paying attention to attachment patterns that shape relationships. He aims to align methods with each person's goals.
Across two decades he has worked with a broad range of issues including intimacy concerns, sleeping problems, career stress, compassion fatigue, and grief. He also addresses more specific topics such as abandonment, caregiver stress, codependency, control issues, and life-purpose questions.
When someone starts with him, he generally combines conversation, practical exercises, and skill practice between sessions. The work tends to be concrete - planning small experiments, tracking reactions, and adjusting strategies as needed. For many people this feels more like focused problem-solving than long-term exploration.
People who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and international clients are accepted.
How sessions work
How David’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while taking action toward values-based goals. It can help with anxiety, burnout, and making clearer choices in relationships and parenting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches practical skills for changing those patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and addictive behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional reactions; this can be useful when intimacy or repeated relationship pain is a concern.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help clients choose methods based on their current needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and may change as progress is made or new issues appear.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not detailed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules, reduce travel time, or offer shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals often use structured exercises, skill practice, and between-session tasks that translate well to remote meetings. Check the platform options so you know which session styles are available and which best fit your day-to-day life.
