David Sprouse, LCPC, LPC

David Sprouse is a licensed counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, and depression. He holds LCPC and LPC credentials and brings five years of licensed counseling experience to his work. He speaks English and practices in Virginia.

David draws on straightforward, practical methods to help people cope with life changes and medical or career-related stress. He encourages honest conversation and aims to make sessions feel calm and approachable. He describes his style as casual but professional to help people open up more easily.

He has experience with addictions and medication-assisted treatment from earlier roles directing a large treatment center. That background informs how he supports people facing substance use challenges and relapse prevention. He also helps people work through trauma, anger, sleep and eating concerns, and problems with focus and attention linked to ADHD.

In sessions he works with individual goals like improving relationships, managing guilt or shame, addressing body image or caregiver strain, and building coping skills. He uses methods that emphasize the person’s own experience and practical steps they can try between meetings. He supports people navigating divorce, fatherhood issues, fertility stress, and chronic illness challenges.

David asks people to take the first step when they feel ready and offers a welcoming, nonjudgmental space to begin. He helps set clear goals and adjusts his approach as needs change over time.
