About David
David Robertson is a licensed clinical social worker who supports people facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and addictive behaviors. He also helps with relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, career transitions, and coping with major life changes. David uses a straightforward, respectful approach and focuses on whatever goal matters most to each person.
He holds a Master of Social Work from Stony Brook University and practices in Georgia.
Background and approach
David has ten years of experience in social work settings and clinical care. He brings practical skills developed over years of working with a wide range of clients in challenging situations. In sessions he leans on client-centered work, letting people set the pace and agenda.
He mixes that with cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Mindfulness exercises and motivational interviewing are also used to build awareness and keep momentum toward goals. Conversations are direct but warm.
David focuses on short-term tools as well as longer-term patterns that keep problems repeating. He helps people learn new ways to handle anger, reduce anxiety, or regain motivation after grief or loss. People who reach out can expect practical suggestions, skill-building exercises, and steady support while they try new approaches.
David aims to make therapy a comfortable space to talk honestly and work toward real change.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance, and following the client’s lead. In online sessions this means the therapist prioritizes the client’s concerns and adapts pacing and topics to what feels most important in each meeting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change patterns. Delivered online, CBT often includes short exercises, worksheets, and between-session practice to track progress and build new habits.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest approaches that fit those needs. Over a few sessions they’ll adjust focus and methods so the work stays practical and relevant to what the client wants to change.
Online formats offer flexibility and different ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief updates, coping tools between sessions, or for people who prefer typing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and keep continuity when schedules change.
