David Robertson, LCSW, CSW

David Robertson, LCSW, CSW, helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, low self-esteem, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, and major life transitions. He works with concerns tied to career stress, caregiver strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and issues related to aging, cancer, or end-of-life care. He is based in Georgia and communicates in English.

David takes a straightforward, person-centered approach in sessions. He listens first, then helps set clear, achievable goals. Sessions are paced to fit each person's needs, and he uses practical tools to address thinking patterns and daily habits that get in the way of feeling better.

He blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and uses mindfulness and motivational interviewing techniques when helpful. That means he focuses on what matters to the client, looks at thoughts and behaviors that contribute to problems, and practices simple awareness exercises to reduce reactivity.

David earned a Master of Social Work from Stony Brook University and holds a Georgia Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential, LCSW, along with CSW. He brings ten years of experience working in a range of settings, including work with veterans and older adults.

In sessions he emphasizes respectful, down-to-earth conversation. He helps people break concerns into manageable steps, practice new responses, and measure progress over time. People who want practical guidance with real-life problems often find this style useful.

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance, and partnering with the client to set goals. Online sessions can mirror that by using conversation to identify priorities and pace work to the person's readiness.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and functioning. In remote sessions this often means practicing exercises together, reviewing thought records, and planning small experiments to try between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences rather than prescribing one fixed method. Clients and therapist check in and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also supports continuity of care for people who move or have irregular schedules.
