About David
David Garcia is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 15 years of experience helping people navigate major life transitions and emotional challenges. He draws on a mix of practical, humanistic, and solution-focused methods to help clients clarify goals, recognize personal strengths, and develop concrete strategies for change.
Background and approach
His background spans public, nonprofit, higher education, and corporate settings, which informs a pragmatic approach to issues that arise across work, school, and personal life. He creates a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore grief, relationship concerns, stress and anxiety, depression, and questions about career or life purpose.
David emphasizes empathy and collaboration while remaining goal-oriented and flexible, adapting tools such as cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies to fit each person’s needs. He also works with concerns related to aging, caregiving, multicultural stressors, and identity-related challenges.
Sessions are offered in English and conducted from his Texas practice, with options for remote formats to accommodate differing schedules and lifestyles.
Approaches and Access: Practical Therapy Online
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop new behavioral strategies; it is often applied when addressing anxiety, mood concerns, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, empathetic stance that helps people feel heard and supported while they explore values, identity, and life decisions. Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying goals and small, achievable steps toward change, making it useful for career transitions, coping with life changes, and clarifying next steps.
Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist partners with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and current challenges, adjusting strategies over time rather than relying on a single technique from the start.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain regular sessions during busy weeks, geographic moves, or when in-person meetings are difficult, while still allowing therapists and clients to work together on practical steps and personal growth.
