David James Counselor, MS
I am a pre-licensed counselor who completed my Master's degree at Kutztown University in 2022. My experience is primarily in working with family-based single parents, children, and adults. I specialize in assessing various disorders, including PTSD, trauma, abuse, anxiety, depression, and autism spectrum disorders, as well as other concerns such as developmental issues and working with terminally ill clients.
I am trained in several therapeutic techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Reality Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. I also can integrate, adapt, and modify my approach to meet the needs of each client. My goal is to meet clients where they are and work to understand their past experiences while providing support and guidance to develop new ways of thinking and improve overall awareness, leading to a positive mindset and objective behaviors.
As a counselor with Christian beliefs, I believe in the power of faith as a source of hope, balance, correction, and inspiration. Faith can aid in thought processing and actions for clients, particularly those with addictive tendencies. I have additional skills in dance movement therapy, meditation, and a passion for animals, particularly horses and service animals.
Finally, as a health coach, I focus on fitness and nutrition to promote positive behaviors and overall wellness. I use my skills and experience to challenge my clients to understand their reality, not just their perception. Together, we work to build a partnership that supports mental stability and helps them achieve their future goals.
