Hi, I'm David. Mostly I am a couples therapist, but I also serve individuals. I practice Emotionally Focused Therapy (an evidence-based practice for couples), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and psychedelic-assisted therapies. In my career I've seen a lot and worked with many different kinds of people; hence, I'm professional and nonjudgmental. I enjoy being a social worker and therapist for all types of humans, but I specialize in serving queer and TGNC couples. Additionally, I am now offering ketamine-assisted psychotherapy for individuals and couples. My belief is, being a person is hard, but good relationships help us to heal.
All of us show up to adult relationships with baggage, echoes of times we felt unsafe in prior relationships. My focus is helping romantic partners work through the barriers that prevent them from feeling as close to one another as they long to. My own lived experience has taught me about the healing power of secure attachment, so I believe in this work.
I identify as queer, Jewish, white, and male/cis-male. I seek a practice that is liberatory, anti-oppressive and identity-affirming (though I do not claim expertise in these). Feel free to check out my website (davidavruch.space) to get a sense of my approach. I accept Medicare insurance; I am out-of-network with other insurance providers.

I work with individuals who are seeking healing and growth trajectories of various types. For couples and families, all interventions are in service of repairing/strengthening the attachment bonds between therapy participants. To achieve these ends I use traditional forms of talk therapy such as Emotionally Focused Therapy & Internal Family Systems Therapy. I also offer ketamine-assisted therapy.
