About David
Dr. David Dohm is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - practicing in Arizona with 30 years of experience. He works with adults and children on issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, substance use, relationship and sexual identity concerns, ADHD, and anger.
His style is open and interactive. He approaches sessions without stigmatizing labels and treats people with respect and sensitivity. Conversations focus on practical ways to handle stress, mood swings, intrusive thoughts, and relationship strains.
He draws from several methods to meet different needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot thinking patterns and change unhelpful habits. Client-Centered Therapy helps people describe their experiences and decide what matters most to them. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be used when past traumatic events keep coming back.
Dr. Dohm also uses mindfulness practices to help with anxiety, sleep, and anger, and motivational interviewing when someone wants to change behaviors like substance use. Sessions aim to be practical - setting small goals, trying new strategies, and checking what works.
He has spent three decades in varied settings supporting people through grief, parenting difficulties, and major life transitions. If someone wants a direct, thoughtful approach to managing anger, stress, or mood problems, he offers a steady, experienced perspective.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Dr. Dohm commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and EMDR in his practice. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anger and anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and descriptions of their experience, using reflective listening to clarify what matters most. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that aims to reduce the emotional impact of distressing memories when they interfere with daily life.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adapt based on what helps. Decisions about technique are collaborative and may change as progress is made.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting appointments into a busy day and reducing travel time. Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not specify exact formats. Online work can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, avoid commuting, or use a phone call when video is not convenient.
