David Todora, LPC - Therapist in Texas

About David

David Todora is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 30 years of experience supporting people through stressful and changing times. He works with adolescents and adults, and focuses on parenting and family matters. He also helps families who are managing aging parents and life transitions.

He practices from Texas and conducts sessions in English. David spent his early career working with children, teens, couples, and whole families. That background informs how he approaches parenting and family concerns today.

Background and approach

He draws on decades of hands-on work rather than a single method. In sessions he aims for a direct, practical style. He listens and then helps clients try small changes that can work in daily life.

He uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thinking and from solution-focused work to build on what is already going well. Parents often come to him worried about stress, anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem in themselves or their children. He also addresses caregiver stress, fatherhood questions, postpartum mood struggles, and workplace or life-purpose concerns.

He tailors each plan to the family’s needs and circumstances. People who choose him can expect collaborative, goal-oriented work. He aims to help clients gain clarity, strengthen coping skills, and move forward with more confidence.

Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

David uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and the behaviors tied to them. CBT is practical and often involves trying specific techniques between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or handle stress.

He also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on what is already working and builds small, achievable steps toward the client’s goals. This approach can be useful for parenting questions, short-term problem solving, and navigating family transitions.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. He will talk with clients about their goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust as needed. The process is collaborative so clients and the therapist decide together what feels most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to work around busy family schedules, reduce travel time, and keep continuity when life gets hectic. Licensed professionals can use these tools to deliver goal-focused work that fits a family’s routine and needs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
