David Hopkins

David Hopkins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction challenges, anger, grief, and depression. He writes treatment plans to fit each person’s situation and talks through concerns with respect and compassion. Taking the first step toward change can feel hard, and he aims to provide steady support during that process.

He uses methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people learn practical skills. That can mean spotting unhelpful thinking patterns, building healthier coping habits, or practicing emotion regulation. Sessions are collaborative and focused on real-world changes you can try between meetings.

Over his eight years as an LPC, David has worked with a wide range of life problems. He also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment struggles, body image, caregiver stress, communication problems, control issues, and the emotional effects of divorce and separation. He pays attention to how these concerns show up in daily life and in relationships.

David aims to keep conversations straightforward and goal-focused. He will help set clear steps and check progress as therapy continues. The approach is practical and paced to the client’s needs.

He practices in Mississippi and conducts sessions in English. If you want to begin, follow the site’s Start Therapy flow to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on the therapist’s availability.

How CBT and DBT Shape Online Care

David uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of thinking and acting. CBT focuses on clear problems and practical steps that can reduce anxiety, low mood, and unhealthy behaviors.

He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. DBT tools can help when strong emotions or impulsive reactions make daily life harder.

Choosing the best approach is a joint process. The therapist will talk with you about your goals and preferences and then suggest techniques to try. Together you can adjust the plan based on what works and what feels manageable.
