About David

David Robertson, LCSW, CSW, helps people facing anxiety, depression, stress, grief, anger, low self-esteem, relationship strain, addiction concerns, and ADHD. He practices in Georgia and brings ten years of clinical experience to sessions. He offers a calm, respectful presence and focuses on practical steps that fit each person's life.

David takes a straightforward, person-centered approach. He listens first and asks what matters most to the client. Together they set goals and try small, workable changes between meetings.

Background and approach

Sessions tend to focus on clear skills and real-life problem solving rather than abstract theory. His background includes a Master of Social Work from Stony Brook University and a decade of work across different settings. That experience includes work with people coping with trauma, caregiving stress, end-of-life concerns, and major life transitions.

He also has experience supporting people with career and financial stressors. In sessions he blends several approaches to meet practical needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to notice patterns of thinking and change unhelpful behaviors.

Mindfulness techniques help people manage strong emotions and stay grounded. Motivational interviewing supports making and sticking with meaningful changes. People who choose David can expect direct conversation, clear options, and a focus on what can help now.

He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences.

How his approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy means he starts by listening closely and following the client's lead. This approach helps when someone needs acceptance, clarity about goals, and a steady guide through hard choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that get in the way and trying concrete changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing ADHD-related challenges that affect daily routines.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work together. He will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and how someone responds in early sessions. That collaborative planning can be changed over time as progress is made or priorities shift.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video is helpful for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins, written reflections, and flexible timing between calls. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
