01About David
Dr. David Dohm brings three decades of counseling experience to his work in Arizona. He is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who listens carefully and helps people tackle problems like anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use.
He aims to make sessions straightforward and respectful for anyone seeking help. He uses a person-centered approach that puts the client's perspective first. That means time is spent understanding what's most important to the person and building on their strengths.
Background and approach
He also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify unhelpful thinking and try practical behavior changes. EMDR is part of his toolkit for people dealing with traumatic memories, and mindfulness practices are offered to help with stress and difficult emotions. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone is trying to make life changes, such as reducing alcohol or drug use.
These approaches are chosen to match each person's goals and needs. Dr. Dohm has worked in many settings over 30 years and has supported people facing mood disorders, ADHD, relationship struggles, grief, parenting stress, and sleep problems.
He also has experience with issues such as domestic violence, codependency, and obsessive-compulsive concerns. He avoids labels and focuses on practical steps clients can try between sessions. Sessions are offered in English and can be done by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.
He describes his style as open and interactive, with an emphasis on respect and sensitivity as people work toward change.

04Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in front of the therapist. Online, this means sessions prioritize what the client says and the goals they bring, with the therapist reflecting and helping people find their own solutions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. Online CBT often includes setting short experiments or homework between sessions to practice new ways of thinking and acting.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used for processing traumatic memories and distressing images. In an online setting EMDR involves guided bilateral stimulation and careful pacing while the therapist helps the person track reactions and integrate new perspectives.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about concerns, goals, and preferences and suggest approaches to try. Together they adjust methods over time based on what is helpful and realistic for the person's life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit quick updates, emotional check-ins, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules.
