David McGraw, LPC

Hi, I’m David, and I’m here to support you through life’s challenges. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, stress, or navigating major life transitions, I understand how overwhelming it can be to cope with life's complexities. My goal is to help you find your path toward a greater sense of purpose, well-being, and personal growth.

With over 10 years of experience in a higher education setting, I specialize in supporting adults of all ages, particularly those navigating career transitions, academic challenges, and personal growth. I am deeply committed to fostering an inclusive, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and goals.

Drawing from existential philosophy, positive psychology, and evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I provide tailored approaches to meet your unique needs. I also offer mindfulness-based practices to build coping skills and foster a deeper understanding of life’s challenges. Together, we will explore your experiences with curiosity and compassion, aiming for sustainable change and more authentic connections with yourself and others.
