About me

I am a Mental Health Therapist licensed in Washington State with over 20 years of experience working in my Private Practice as well as the King County Public Heath, BSD and Youth Eastside Services. For the last 2.5 years, I have been providing Mental Health Therapy services on the BetterHelp.com platform. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach is based in Reality Therapy as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I work with you on planning a more positive course of action to help you feel more balanced in all aspects of your life. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I have openings in my schedule in the mornings and can also accommodate afternoon/night appointments.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you! David M.ED, LMHC

David is avaliable on all mediums as Better Help descibes. Prompt and responsive. He has been essential in helping my healing process emotionally, mentally and even physically by showing techniques and giving tools to help with what comes in the wake of major life changes, life stops, starts and skills in continuation.

David is a very good support. He listens and asks questions that cause me to reflect. He has processed a lot with me and I would highlyrecommend his support to others.

David is a great listener and really tries to make you feel heard, understood and that you matter!!

David has been amazing; he has a communication style that meshes with my style perfectly. He’s easy to talk to and I’ve lost count of the “ah ha!” moments that stemmed from our sessions. He challenges me in an encouraging way to challenge my own thinking and will help me recognize an “excuse” if that’s where I’m heading. I’m certainly making strides that I’m not sure would have happened had it not been for my time with David. Absolutely two thumbs up!

David is an outstanding listener who can really hear what’s going on, beyond what I am saying. He helped me work through a specific problem very quickly.
