About David

David Wynn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people feeling stuck by stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, sleep problems, low self-esteem, and major life changes. He also addresses career concerns, compassion fatigue, seasonal affective disorder, social anxiety and phobia, fatherhood issues, hearing-impaired needs, and veteran and armed forces issues. He offers individual therapy only and does not provide couples or family therapy.

He brings 15 years of experience across inpatient and outpatient settings. His style is down-to-earth and often includes humor to ease tension. He encourages people to be active in sessions and treats clients as the experts on their own lives. Sessions tend to be conversational and goal-oriented rather than overly clinical.

David uses mindfulness practices alongside client-centered and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice thoughts and try small, practical changes. He also uses solution-focused strategies to set clear, achievable steps. The work often includes simple skills to manage anxiety, improve sleep, and handle day-to-day stressors.

He enjoys working with people from diverse cultural and spiritual backgrounds and aims to make therapy feel approachable. Many clients find sessions less intimidating than they expected and appreciate a relaxed atmosphere that still focuses on real progress.

People who choose him usually want practical tools and a collaborative process. He asks questions, listens closely, and helps build plans that fit each person’s life. To start, he guides people through a short matching questionnaire and scheduling process.

How his approaches translate to online work

David often combines mindfulness practices with client-centered and cognitive behavioral techniques. Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention and breathing exercises that help people notice thoughts and bodily reactions; it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and sleep issues. Client-centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and working at the client’s pace to set goals and find solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches concrete skills to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. He will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they pick techniques to try and adjust them based on what works in practice.

This therapist’s session formats are not listed here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes regular practice of mindfulness and CBT skills more manageable by letting people schedule consistent, focused time for the work.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing mindfulness as an approach does not mean a therapist holds a formal mindfulness training or certificate.
