David Sprouse, LCPC, LPC

David Sprouse is a licensed counselor who blends practical strategies with a down-to-earth approach. He is listed with the credentials LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) and LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) and brings five years of counseling-specific experience to his work. He aims to create an open space where people can talk about what’s hard without feeling judged.

He focuses on common concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, and addiction. He also helps with relationship troubles, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, ADHD, sleep and eating problems, and career-related stress. David draws on several therapeutic methods to match what each person needs.

In sessions he keeps the tone casual but professional. He works collaboratively to set goals and pick practical steps. That may include changing unhelpful thoughts, learning new coping skills, or practicing emotional awareness.

Beyond direct counseling work, he has experience running addiction services and supporting people through medical and caregiving stress. That background informs how he supports people facing chronic illness, recovery from substance use, or caregiver burden.

People who choose him can expect straightforward conversation and tools they can use between sessions. He encourages honest talk about setbacks and progress and works with each person to find approaches that fit their life.

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and making space for a person to lead the conversation. It helps when someone needs acceptance and practical reflection to figure out next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses specific techniques to change patterns that cause distress. This is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on identifying and naming emotions and linking them to relationship needs; it can help when communication and emotional connection are the main issues.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. If something doesn’t fit, the plan can be adjusted so the work stays useful and relevant.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and reduce travel time. It also lets people use shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or choose a simpler audio-only option if video is difficult. Licensed professionals can tailor session length and pacing to match daily life and responsibilities.
