About David
David Weiss is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 13 years of clinical experience.

He also assists people navigating parenting strains, relationship and family problems, grief, career questions, and issues linked to ADHD and compassion fatigue.
He uses straightforward, goal-focused methods in sessions. David draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered work, and Attachment-Based ideas to help people understand patterns and try different responses. He also uses Solution-Focused techniques and motivational interviewing to set practical next steps and support progress.

He emphasizes what a person can do day to day to reduce tension, manage anger, sleep better, or improve communication at home. Work on parenting concerns centers on clear strategies and realistic goals rather than abstract theory.
People who come for help with addiction-related concerns or disruptive mood symptoms are supported with practical steps and referrals when needed. David also addresses attachment issues, codependency, body image, and common relationship challenges such as infidelity and commitment worries.
