David Binger
David Binger is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) who offers a supportive, strengths-focused approach that honors each person’s pace and readiness for change. He believes therapy begins with taking the first step and learning to see strengths beyond symptoms or labels. Having benefited from therapy himself, David understands how meaningful it can be to feel supported without needing everything figured out. Clients can expect a safe, validating space where they feel believed, respected, and encouraged to grow. He has a special interest in Adlerian and anti-oppressive approaches, focusing on early influences, life goals, resilience, and human dignity. David invites you to explore therapy as a courageous step toward becoming the best version of yourself.

Booking FAQ
First Session charges each session directly to your credit card. Once each session occurs, and your card is charged, you will receive a PDF receipt to your email with all of the details you will need to get reimbursed (therapist name, license/designation, license number, address, etc). You can then submit the receipt to your insurance company for reimbursement if you have coverage.
We always recommend you check with your insurance provider to confirm what coverage you have.
You are the expert when it comes to knowing who is the right fit. Ensure you’ve watched the therapist video at the top of their profile and see if you get a good feeling from the message and the energy they are putting out. If you feel drawn to speak with them, listen to your gut! Booking a free consultation is a great first step to asses fit.
