David Wright

My approach to therapy is goal-oriented and focuses on the entire individual and support system. I believe in a client-centered approach which considers each individuals’ personality and background. I also focus my treatment with a cognitive approach which examines undesirable and destructive thought patterns. I am also a Certified Hypnotist/Hypnotherapist and see clients who seek to make changes using hypnosis (such as weight loss and smoking cessation). I began working to help others at a young age of 17. I spent 7 summers during my education working as a counselor for adolescents at a summer camp. I pursued my desire to help people by completing my Bachelors Degree in Psychology and my Masters Degree in Counseling. I believe everyone has difficulties and struggles in life and we can all benefit for taking the time to improve ourselves which in turn provides the opportunity for a positive, well-adjusted and happy life. I have 25 years of counseling experience and am currently the Clinical Director of an outpatient mental health facility in Taylor, Michigan (a suburb of Detroit). I am licensed in the State of Michigan as a Licensed Professional Counselor and I am also a National Certified Counselor. I am a certified Hypnotist/Hypnotherapist. I also perform hypnosis stage shows all over the country as The Motor City Hypnotist.
