About David

David Krych is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 19 years of clinical experience based in Wisconsin. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, depression, and related life challenges. David draws on his own recovery experience to understand the realities of substance use and the work recovery requires.

He spent the early part of his career supporting adolescents who faced juvenile justice involvement and out-of-home placement. After taking time away from clinical work and living through his own recovery, he shifted focus to adults with substance use struggles and the many factors that contribute to them. That background informs how he listens and plans care today.

Sessions focus on getting to know a person's goals and experience. David uses practical skills and evidence-informed strategies so people can make concrete changes. He emphasizes self-acceptance and realistic steps toward improved functioning rather than quick fixes.

He integrates Client-Centered techniques with Cognitive Behavioral work and Emotionally-Focused ideas to address thoughts, feelings, and relationship patterns. Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused methods are used when people want support making changes and finding clearer direction.

David describes therapy as a collaborative process. He helps people recognize strengths and build on them. He also acknowledges how hard change can be and works at a steady, realistic pace with each person.

How his approaches translate to online work

David combines Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in straightforward ways online. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, understanding priorities, and working from the client’s own goals to shape sessions. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing concrete skills to change behavior and mood.

He also brings Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas into work on relationships and core emotional responses. That approach helps people name their feelings, notice interaction patterns, and try different ways of relating. Together these approaches can address anxiety, substance use concerns, relationship patterns, and day-to-day coping skills.

Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about what methods feel useful, try specific techniques, and adjust based on how someone responds. Clients help set goals and the therapist supports practical steps toward those goals.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find virtual sessions help them keep continuity of care while balancing other responsibilities.
