About David
David Rice is a licensed counselor who focuses on helping people regain calm and control when stress or anger feel overwhelming. He brings 22 years of experience and a steady, respectful approach to conversations about anxiety, grief, addiction, and relationship struggles. He speaks English and works from Utah.
He uses clear, practical techniques so people leave sessions with something they can try that week. Sessions often involve learning new ways to notice thoughts and feelings, and practicing different responses to conflict or strong emotion.
Background and approach
He encourages small, realistic goals that build forward momentum. David blends several therapy styles to match each person's needs. He emphasizes listening and building trust first, then offers tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to shift unhelpful thinking and reduce reactivity.
He also draws on attachment ideas to look at how past relationships shape current behavior. Over two decades of clinical work have involved many concerns including parenting stress, family problems, intimacy issues, trauma and substance problems. He aims to meet people where they are and help them move toward healthier patterns of coping and connection.
Practical matters like managing chronic pain, caregiver stress, or blended family dynamics are addressed alongside emotional goals. David frames therapy as a collaborative process where clients set the pace and decide which changes matter most to them.

How David Uses Practical Therapies Online
David commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness therapy when working online. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors that reduce anxiety, anger, or depression. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lower reactivity and increase present-moment awareness. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist listens to your goals and tries methods that fit your needs and preferences. Together you decide which tools to keep, adapt, or stop based on what helps most. Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls work well for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to send brief updates, ask quick questions, or practice skills between longer sessions. These options let people fit therapy into work breaks, caregiving routines, or other busy schedules.Questions people ask about David
