About David
David Adames, LPC, grounds his work in collaborative, strengths-based practice developed over 18 years in Colorado.
Background and approach
He frames clients as the experts of their own stories and helps them draw on existing strengths to address concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, grief, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, career questions, bipolar concerns, coaching, and ADHD.
His approach emphasizes practical skills and meaningful values to support real-world changes. David combines evidence-informed methods like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy to tailor care to each person’s needs.
Whether someone is navigating abandonment, codependency, communication problems, substance-related issues, family of origin dynamics, or fatherhood concerns, he works to create a collaborative path forward. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish to reach more people across Colorado, and he supports access through a range of online session formats.
Taking the first step can feel difficult, and David offers steady, supportive guidance as people pursue a more fulfilling and balanced life.
Integrating Practical Approaches with Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. This approach is often helpful for stress, anxiety, and life changes where values-based action can create forward momentum. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through structured techniques and homework; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping skills development. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills to help manage intense emotions and improve relationships.Deciding which approach fits best is part of the therapeutic work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to explore goals, preferences, and responses to different methods, and then adapt techniques from these models to match individual needs. This collaborative process helps ensure that the chosen strategies feel relevant and usable in everyday life.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules and access support from home. These formats can increase consistency and make follow-up between sessions more convenient, allowing licensed professionals to deliver tailored interventions and skills training across a range of concerns.
