About David

David Rogers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 30 years of experience. He works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, eating and food-related issues, and coping with life changes. He also lists codependency and communication problems among areas he focuses on.

He emphasizes straightforward conversation. Sessions are a place to talk through what feels overwhelming and to sort out patterns that keep repeating. He aims to help people recognize where they give too much of themselves and practice different choices in relationships and daily life.

Over three decades of practice have included work with panic, midlife shifts, fatherhood matters, guilt and shame, impulsivity, and men’s issues. He draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and behavior patterns. The emphasis is on practical steps the person can try between sessions.

In therapy with him clients can expect direct discussion of family of origin themes and how those shape current relationships. Eating and food-related concerns are addressed with attention to both behavior and emotion. He supports people who want clearer boundaries and better communication.

Sessions move at a steady pace and aim for realistic change. The focus stays on what the client wants to change and what fits into their life. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

Practical approaches used online and how they help

David Rogers relies on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing thoughts and behaviors and on improving communication. Cognitive-style approaches look at unhelpful thoughts and teach ways to test and change them, which can reduce anxiety and panic symptoms. Behavioral strategies emphasize small, repeated practice of new responses to stress, eating triggers, or impulsive urges, so people can see tangible shifts in daily life.

He also works on relationship patterns and family of origin themes, using clear conversation to map how past interactions shape current choices. That approach helps people set firmer boundaries and try different ways of speaking and reacting in relationships. Figuring out the best combination of techniques is a collaborative process; the therapist and client decide together which methods match the client’s needs and goals.

Confirm current session options before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins can be scheduled during a lunch break, or a session without video can reduce bandwidth needs. Licensed professionals can use these practical arrangements to keep progress moving while fitting sessions into everyday routines.
