David Robertson, LCSW, CSW

David Robertson is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and changes that come with aging and caregiving. He uses a calm, respectful manner to make it easier to talk about hard things. David aims to meet each person where they are and move at a pace that feels right for them.

David holds a Master of Social Work from Stony Brook University and lists LCSW and CSW as his credentials. He has about 10 years of experience working in a variety of settings. That experience includes work with veterans, people in hospice and end-of-life care, and older adults dealing with geriatric concerns.

In sessions he favors a person-centered approach that focuses on listening and building trust. He also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness techniques to help people notice patterns and try small, practical changes. Motivational interviewing is part of his toolkit when clients want to build motivation for change.

People come to him for help with relationship and intimacy questions, addiction and recovery issues, caregiver stress, and major life transitions like retirement or illness. He also supports clients working through anger, low self-esteem, ADHD, and career-related stress. David frames goals collaboratively and checks in about progress as therapy continues.

David practices in Georgia and conducts sessions in English. He asks prospective clients to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire to begin the scheduling process.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

David often combines person-centered listening with cognitive behavioral tools to help people change patterns that cause distress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy and acceptance, giving people space to describe what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people try small, practical experiments to reduce anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. He will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adjust methods as therapy progresses. That collaborative planning helps match techniques to what the person wants and needs.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy life because they reduce travel time, allow sessions during a lunch break, or make it easier to keep regular appointments. Therapists can use talking, guided practices, and homework exercises in virtual sessions to support progress just as they would in person.
