David Evans, LMHC

David Evans is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Washington with 20 years of experience. He sees adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, relationship problems, parenting strain, and trauma or abuse.

He uses straightforward conversation and practical planning in sessions. He commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Reality Therapy ideas to help people change unhelpful thoughts and take concrete steps. Sessions often focus on setting short-term goals and testing new ways of coping between meetings.

David has worked across private practice and public mental health settings over two decades. That background means he is used to helping people with common life pressures such as work stress, sleep problems, parenting demands, grief, and transitions. He is also experienced supporting people with addiction, anger, and intimacy-related struggles.

In sessions he listens for patterns that get in the way of feeling more balanced. Then he helps put together small experiments and clearer plans to reduce distress and improve routines. He also uses motivational interviewing techniques to help people move toward change when motivation is low.

People who come with relationship or family concerns can expect practical communication strategies and problem-focused work. He also brings narrative therapy tools when people want to reframe past experiences and regain a sense of control over their story.
