About David
David Yadush is a licensed professional counselor (LPCC) in California and also holds an LPC credential. He has eight years of clinical experience supporting people with mood and identity-related concerns, anxiety, stress, and career or relationship worries. David focuses on LGBT issues, bipolar and other mood disorders, and coping with life changes.
He helps people talk through social anxiety, sleep problems, and the emotional fallout of chronic illness or pain. Sessions also address shame, guilt, and questions about sexuality and gender. He uses several established approaches to build practical skills and deeper understanding.
David blends client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. He also draws on mindfulness exercises to reduce reactivity and on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat across relationships. Motivational interviewing is used when people want concrete support making changes.
His work aims to balance short-term problem solving with attention to longer-standing patterns. People can expect collaborative goal-setting and straightforward techniques to manage stress and mood swings. He frames therapy around what a person wants to change and the next small steps toward that goal.
Sessions can include coaching elements when the focus is career or life-purpose decisions. Language of service is English and he practices in California.

Therapeutic approaches and remote sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person and their perspective. It involves active listening and helping people clarify their own goals, which can be useful for identity questions and building self-esteem.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It offers practical exercises and experiments to reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, and improve sleep.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness. It can help with stress, emotional regulation, and coping with chronic pain.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time in a collaborative way.
Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time for appointments.
