01About David
David Ordan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin with five years of clinical experience. He helps people who are facing relationship troubles, career crossroads, or the lingering impact of painful memories. David focuses on practical steps clients can take to move forward and build a more satisfying life.
He sees individuals and people in relationships, with a particular interest in men's issues and career or dating concerns.
Background and approach
Sessions begin by looking at the most pressing areas of life - work, romance, and close relationships - and identifying what the client most wants to change. The tone is direct, hopeful, and goal-oriented. David draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered ideas to find what matters to each person.
He mixes those with relationship-focused approaches like the Gottman Method and Imago Relationship Therapy when couples work together. Motivational Interviewing also shows up in conversations about career transitions and stubborn habits. In sessions he helps clients notice strengths and build them into daily life.
He pays attention to family of origin patterns, communication problems, and issues like jealousy, guilt, or feeling empty. Work can include coaching-style planning, skill practice, and talking through emotional blocks. Clients who choose David can expect a practical, collaborative process that centers their values and goals.
He works with people from various faiths and identities and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules.

04Online support
How therapy approaches adapt to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what truly matters to them and take small steps toward those values. Online ACT sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors that fit a client's life goals. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and empathy; online meetings create space for people to tell their story and be heard without pressure. The therapist follows the client's lead and reflects what matters most to them.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. Together they decide whether to emphasize ACT, relationship work, motivational interviewing, or a mix of methods to match the client's needs.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice using visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients send updates, try short coaching prompts, or keep momentum between longer meetings. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and continue work even when travel or schedules change.
