About David Robbins

David Robbins is a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC - with 14 years of clinical experience who combines directness and practical guidance to help people move forward. He frames his work as a blend of coaching, support, and constructive feedback, aiming to help motivated individuals make meaningful changes and answer the question of why they repeat certain patterns. His style is straightforward and honest, with attention to respecting clients' time and resources while helping them get pointed in a positive direction.

Academically, he holds both a bachelor's and a master's degree in psychology, earning a Master of Counseling Psychology from MidAmerica Nazarene University in 2009. His training emphasizes motivational approaches and cognitive behavioral techniques, and he draws on a broad set of methods to fit each person's needs rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all model. He employs Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Existential Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy as appropriate for the goals at hand.

Robbins has worked across a wide range of clinical settings, including inpatient psychiatric units, drug rehabilitation clinics, eating disorder programs, and private psychiatric practice. That variety informs his work with concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, parenting and family challenges, sleep difficulties, anger, career transitions, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. He also gives attention to areas like autism and Asperger syndrome, dissociation, first responder issues, postpartum depression, and compassion fatigue.

Based in Missouri and offering services in English, he blends practical techniques with motivational support to help people overcome obstacles and pursue their life goals. His approach centers on tailoring treatment to the individual and helping clients get out of their own way so they can move ahead with purpose.
