If you’re reading this, pause for a moment. Well done! It takes courage to even consider therapy, especially if you’re used to being the “strong one”. Many people come in carrying the pain of invisible wounds. The kind that don’t show on the outside but shape how you move through the world. Pain that gets hidden, minimized, or handled alone because others depend on you, or because it feels safer not to burden anyone else. We will explore the stories that shaped you, understand where stress, shame, or survival roles took hold, and how they may still be running the show. And I do more than just listen.

As a pediatric neuropsychologist, I work with children, teens, and young adults who are navigating attention, learning, behavior, or developmental concerns. Families are often referred by schools, doctors, or therapists for issues like ADHD, learning differences, or challenges related to medical conditions like epilepsy, preterm birth, or cerebral palsy. Whether it’s a first evaluation or a re-evaluation, I help identify strengths, clarify concerns, and create practical recommendations to guide treatment and school support.

Hi, I'm David. I'm a queer-informed, relational therapist who helps you build authentic connections with yourself and others, while honoring how we're wired to connect and supporting collective healing. My unique take on therapy challenges the myth that we must solve problems in isolation, disconnected from important parts of ourselves and our community. Sessions with me integrate talk therapy, somatic skill building, and evidence-based trauma approaches (CPT, Polyvagal interventions) to help you access genuine self-expression and meaningful relationships.

Cognitive Processing (CPT) Therapists
How does cognitive processing therapy work?
A CPT therapist helps a client evaluate their thoughts about the trauma they experienced, focusing on maladaptive or self-blaming thoughts that can exacerbate symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, or depression. The therapist will work with a client to help them learn to challenge such thoughts and consider different perspectives. The therapist is also likely to ask a client to work on these techniques at home between meetings, such as writing an account of their trauma that can be read aloud during a future session.
What is cognitive processing therapy for PTSD?
Cognitive processing therapy (CPT) is a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy primarily used in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to treat individuals who experienced abuse or violence, who survived natural disasters, who were first responders to such incidents, or who otherwise experienced trauma.
How long does cognitive processing therapy last?
CPT is a short-term therapy. Whether conducted one-on-one or in a group, a complete set of CPT sessions typically includes 12 weekly sessions, along with tasks for clients to complete at home, although this can vary depending on a client’s needs or a therapist’s particular treatment plan. Sessions typically last 60 or 90 minutes.
How effective is cognitive processing therapy?
A large body of research supports the use of CPT to treat people experiencing PTSD, finding it to be effective among different age groups, either in one-on-one therapy sessions or in a group therapy environment. Research suggests that although the initial sessions may be difficult, clients tend to begin to feel positive progress after the first few sessions, and that the benefits tend to last well after the therapy ends.
