About David
David LaBua is a California LMFT with 24 years of clinical experience working with relationship and family concerns. He focuses on helping people with intimacy issues, career transitions, and the stress that comes with life changes.
He helps people address problems like abandonment, attachment struggles, and communication breakdowns. He also works with concerns around control, forgiveness, guilt, shame, and money. Sexuality and issues some men bring at midlife are part of his practice as well.
Sessions are conversational but purposeful. He listens for patterns in relationships and daily choices, then discusses small, concrete steps a person can try between meetings. The goal is to reduce repeated conflicts and help people get clearer about what they want next.
David uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work on attachment, trust, and problem solving. He frames therapy as a cooperative effort and adapts the conversation to fit each person’s situation. He also brings 24 years of practical experience to questions about career direction and separation or divorce.
People meet him to sort through relationship dynamics, reconnect with their values, and handle life transitions with less overwhelm. Sessions are in English and he accepts clients from outside the United States. Before booking, confirm current session options and formats.

Approaches used and what online sessions involve
David draws on evidence-based techniques that focus on attachment and interpersonal patterns. Attachment-focused work looks at how early relationship patterns affect present behavior and helps people notice and change automatic reactions. This approach is useful for intimacy problems, abandonment worries, and repeated conflict patterns.He also uses practical problem-solving methods that break larger issues into manageable steps. This includes identifying communication habits, experimenting with new interaction strategies, and checking what works in daily life. These techniques help with career decisions, money stress, and coping with separation.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that fit the client’s goals, and adjust the plan as progress and preferences become clearer.
The biography does not list supported session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people connect from another state when that fits their needs. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to an online setting to keep the work practical and action oriented.
