David Robertson, LCSW, CSW

David Robertson is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and grief. He uses a direct, respectful style and aims to meet clients where they are. David holds a Master of Social Work from Stony Brook University and brings a decade of practice experience to his work. He lives and practices in Georgia as an LCSW and CSW.

David describes his approach as person-centered and warm. He focuses on building a practical working relationship and moving at a pace that feels manageable. Sessions tend to center on clear goals and everyday steps people can try between meetings. He invites honest conversation about what is working and what needs to change.

He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Mindfulness practices are offered when they fit a client's needs and can help with stress, anxiety, and attention concerns. Motivational interviewing is used to support people making difficult changes, including around addiction or lifestyle shifts.

David has experience with a wide range of concerns, including caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related matters, and career or financial stress. He has worked with veterans and people navigating hospice and end-of-life issues. That background informs a practical, empathetic approach when clients face big life transitions.

How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

David uses client-centered work to build a respectful, listening space where the client's priorities guide the pace and focus. This approach helps people clarify what matters and set practical goals for change.

He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT tools can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship patterns by breaking problems into manageable steps.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about goals and preferences, and together they will choose methods that fit the situation. Adjustments are common as work progresses and needs change.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a workday, or avoiding the need to be on camera when that helps someone focus. Licensed professionals and therapists often adapt exercises and homework to work well in remote sessions.
