David Johnson, LPC

David Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 24 years of experience. He focuses on everyday problems like anxiety, stress, relationship struggles, grief, and life transitions. He aims to make the first step less intimidating and offers steady support as people begin to sort things out.

David uses practical conversations to help clients set clear goals and try manageable changes. He combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, with Solution-Focused ideas that emphasize small steps and strengths. Sessions tend to be direct and goal-oriented while staying respectful and calm.

He works with issues such as parenting challenges, family conflict, anger, self-esteem concerns, addictions, trauma and eating problems. He also helps with mood disorders like depression and bipolar symptoms, attention concerns such as ADHD, and career or intimacy-related worries. Additional focus areas include caregiver stress, blended family dynamics, and divorce or separation adjustments.

Conversations with David are tailored to each person’s needs. He listens, helps identify practical next steps, and adjusts strategies when they don’t fit. The approach aims to reduce overwhelming feelings and increase day-to-day coping skills.

Sessions are offered through a range of online formats. People in Texas who speak English can expect a calm, task-focused space to work through specific problems and try concrete tools for change.

How CBT and Solution-Focused Work Online

David uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems that feel stuck. Solution-Focused Therapy complements CBT by narrowing the conversation to strengths and small, practical steps that move a person toward clear goals.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about symptoms, priorities, and what has worked before, then together pick strategies to try and adjust them over time. The goal is to find methods that fit the person's life and feel doable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is helpful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone can work when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in, and chat or messaging suits brief updates or when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options make it possible to fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
