About David
David Todora is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 30 years of experience helping people navigate stressful and uncertain times. He practices in Texas and focuses much of his work on parenting, anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. He aims for straightforward, usable strategies that fit into busy family schedules.
He learned early in his career by working with people at many life stages. That background informs how he adapts sessions for adolescents, adults, and parents balancing caregiving duties.
Background and approach
He also brings experience with aging and geriatric concerns and caregiver stress into conversations about family transitions. In sessions he keeps things collaborative and practical. He listens first, then helps clients set clear, achievable goals.
He uses goal-focused conversations and techniques that help people change unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors between sessions. People can expect a respectful, down-to-earth style. He encourages honest talk about guilt, shame, and purpose, and he helps clients develop everyday coping skills for panic, workplace stress, or low mood.
Sessions aim to build small wins that add up over time. His work blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy ideas into simple plans people can use at home. He helps parents manage parenting challenges, supports those facing postpartum or seasonal mood shifts, and works with young adults finding their path.
Appointments are offered through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging for flexibility.

How his approaches translate to online work
David Todora uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in plain, usable ways. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and helps people test new thinking and behavior patterns to reduce anxiety or low mood. Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on small, practical steps toward goals and on identifying what already works so clients can build on their strengths.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. He collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration can change over time as goals shift or new concerns arise.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make attending easier. Video calls allow face-to-face discussion for skills practice and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, quick problem-solving, or continued work between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy parenting and caregiving routines and to keep momentum between scheduled appointments.
