01About David
David Garcia is a licensed professional counselor who brings 15 years of experience to his work in Texas. He helps people sort through stress, anxiety, grief, and changes in career or life direction. He focuses on practical steps people can try right away and on building strengths that last.
He views problems in context - shaped by relationships, systems, and everyday life. Sessions are collaborative and designed to help a person understand how their situation affects feelings and choices.
Background and approach
David keeps the conversation straightforward and goal-oriented so progress feels tangible. His background includes work in the public sector, nonprofits, higher education, and corporate settings. That mix gives him a practical sense of how workplaces, schools, and services can affect well-being.
He often helps people facing career moves, students handling educational pressures, and those dealing with chronic illness or major life transitions. David uses methods that center the person, combine thought-focused strategies, and aim for quick, usable solutions. He emphasizes empathy, respect, and practical planning during sessions.
The aim is to leave each meeting with a clear next step. People who want calm, straightforward guidance tend to fit well with his style. He works with issues such as relationship stress, low self-esteem, depression, LGBT concerns, caregiver strain, and feelings of isolation.
He helps clients identify values and make choices that match their goals.

04Online support
How his approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the individual. It helps people feel understood and clarifies personal goals so they can make choices that fit their values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical ways to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood concerns because it gives concrete tools to try between sessions.
Solution-Focused Therapy narrows attention to small, achievable steps and what is already working. It is useful when someone wants quick, actionable change and clearer next steps in difficult life moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. David treats the process as a collaboration and will help clarify which methods match a person's goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions may blend approaches when that best supports progress.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet the same goals as in-person work. Video calls let people see nonverbal cues and hold longer sessions; phone sessions can be easier when a low-bandwidth option is needed; live chat and text-based messaging support quick check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options help people fit counseling into busy days and different routines.
