David Panahi

LCPC, EMDR

Life can be full of twists and turns that can be overwhelming to handle on your own. These challenges can impact your mental health, relationships, job performance, and spiritual well-being. If you’re experiencing this, please know that you’re not alone.

What to expect when working with me

You may be wondering, “How can I break free from this difficult situation?” As your therapist, my role is to support you through these struggles and explore alternative paths that can bring hope and wellness into your life.

I provide a compassionate space where you can freely express yourself, and I offer honest feedback to assist you. Together, we will create a personalized treatment plan that addresses your concerns and aligns with your goals. We’ll regularly evaluate our progress along the way.

I specialize in helping individuals with relationship conflicts, managing anxiety and depression, boosting self-esteem, overcoming trauma and PTSD, and addressing substance abuse.

My counseling approach is rooted in empirical research and shaped by the feedback I receive from my clients. I am trained as an EMDR trauma therapist and certified as a Prepare-Enrich facilitator for premarital and couples counseling. Feel free to reach out to me for a 15-minute complimentary consultation and assessment.
