About David

David Todora is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with three decades of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, and major life changes.

Background and approach

He practiced widely early in his career with children, adolescents, couples, families, and adults, building broad clinical skills that now inform his focus on adolescents, adults, parenting concerns, and caregiving for aging parents. His Texas LPC credential is TX LPC 12917 and he provides care in English.

He approaches counseling in a collaborative, practical manner that adapts to each client's situation and emotional state. Sessions emphasize clear goals, evidence-informed strategies, and honest feedback to help clients develop coping skills, restore confidence, and clarify life purpose.

David draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques and Solution-Focused Therapy to create structured, actionable plans that address symptoms while also supporting long-term resilience. Clients who appreciate a grounded, goal-oriented style can expect a respectful therapeutic alliance that balances support with challenge.

He works with a range of mood and adjustment concerns including parenting stress, caregiver strain, workplace issues, panic symptoms, postpartum depression, and life-stage transitions, helping people take manageable steps toward improved functioning and clearer priorities.

Practical Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, panic, and related concerns. It offers concrete tools like thought records and behavioral experiments to help people change how they react to stressors.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on building solutions and small, achievable steps rather than spending extended time on problem origins. This approach can be useful for clients seeking rapid progress on parenting issues, workplace goals, or navigating life transitions by highlighting strengths and practical next steps.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be decided collaboratively. The therapist works with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then adapts methods or combines strategies to find what fits best for each person. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy stays aligned with what the client hopes to accomplish.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access to care. These formats make it easier to schedule appointments around work, family, and caregiving responsibilities, and they allow clients to maintain consistent work on skills and goals even when life gets busy.
