I specialize in working with couples, teaching self-compassion and mindfulness, and parenting struggles.
Trying to ‘do it all’ can be exhausting. And, even while feeling successful, it’s easy to get worn down and feel like we aren’t living as fully as we’d like. Life is hard and relationships are complicated. You deserve the opportunity to find happiness and fulfillment. Therapy creates an opportunity for you to take time for yourself, to think through what you want to be different, and to fix what’s not working. For years, I have worked successfully with individuals, couples, and families to help them increase satisfaction and reconnect in ways that they’ve been missing.

Hello, I'm glad you’re here! Seeking a therapist is an incredible first step at choosing yourself and your well-being - to put yourself first takes strength and bravery, and that does not go unnoticed. I am passionate about supporting those who struggle with eating/feeding disorders or disordered eating habits, mood/personality disorders, OCD, and depression/anxiety and are ready to start living a life that feels their own. Additionally, I recognize the toll that daily stress and/or mental health concerns can take on couples/partnerships and take great responsibility in working with both parties to work towards a better future.

My clients are often teens, young women and couples who are navigating depression, anxiety, OCD, disordered eating, or self-destructive cycles of behavior.
You’ve been trying to do this alone, and you’re tired of trying. These days, your emotions feel like a minefield – where harsh words, unexpected obstacles or even "good" days can detonate uncontrollable feelings, urges, and actions. When the dust settles, you’re left in a haze of regret and shame. You’ve tried everything to numb out the thoughts and feelings entirely, and over time, other people have been pushed out, too. Alone and confused, you wonder: why does life seem easier for everyone else? Am I unfixable? Does anyone understand what I go through each day?

I believe in a trust based relationship and going at your pace that you feel is comfortable.
My name is David Pepper, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have worked with many different populations and have a diverse background which includes people who have experienced trauma, crisis, anxiety, depression, grief, loss, PTSD, relationship dynamics, and relationship problems. A quality therapist is only as good as the relationship they are able to develop in what I refer to as a therapeutic alliance. By instilling trust and empathy I believe that change and healing come from within the individual as we progress this journey from a holistic approach.

More specifically, I work with individuals who are 18 years and older and also see couples for couples counseling.
Getting to this point takes a lot of courage. It can be a LOT to try to find the therapist that is right for you. I get it - I’ve been in that seat, too. It's scary to be vulnerable and try something new. But it’s also a lot to keep living and feeling the way you are right now. So let’s make some adjustments and start you on your way to feeling and living better. Spoiler alert: no therapist has all the answers. Instead, let's find the answers together. Therapy is exactly that - working together. I'm here to guide you along your path and help you in the direction that you want, not tell you where to go.

I would suggest (and research agrees) that the fit and relationship in therapy is more important than the specific "how".
Hi, if you're like many of my clients, you're hoping to find a therapist who has worked with your kind of worries before, will listen without passing judgement and can offer a safe place to process as well as get some concrete tools to help you feel better. My clients often describe struggling with communication or compromise in relationships, hurting from a big loss, frustration with their kid's problems, feeling anxious, or having a hard time at work. Most of my clients want a therapist who is warm, authentic, can explain the "why" behind their "what" and is willing to engage, not just observe.
