David Robertson, LCSW, CSW

David Robertson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Georgia who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship struggles. He also supports those facing burnout, addiction concerns, changes at work, and issues around self-esteem and intimacy. He writes plainly and focuses on practical steps that people can use between sessions.

David earned a Master of Social Work from Stony Brook University and has ten years of experience in clinical settings. He draws on a client-centered approach to meet people where they are and move at a pace that feels right for each person. His style is warm and respectful, aimed at building a working relationship first.

In sessions he uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to help people change unhelpful thoughts and habits and to strengthen coping skills. He explains ideas in everyday language and helps clients set small, achievable goals. Sessions often include skill practice, thought-guided exercises, and problem-solving work for real-life situations.

David has worked with a broad range of life circumstances, including veteran and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, grief and end-of-life concerns, and challenges tied to major life transitions. He also addresses communication and commitment questions that affect relationships and blended families.

He offers appointments through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. People who want to begin can use the platform's Start Therapy button, fill out a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a session according to his availability.

How his approaches and online sessions work

David often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT typically involves identifying patterns, testing beliefs, and practicing new skills that reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress.

He also draws on client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and meeting people where they are. That approach helps build trust and keeps the pace directed by the person's own goals and comfort.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then shape sessions to fit. This is a collaborative process where approaches can be adjusted as needs and progress emerge.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be useful for focused check-ins, and text messaging supports brief updates or ongoing reflection between appointments. These options give practical flexibility so therapy can fit into busy schedules and different day-to-day situations.
