About David
David Kurfman is a licensed therapist based in Indiana who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or family concerns. He has spent more than 35 years working with people dealing with trauma, grief, parenting strain, addiction, ADHD, and mood challenges. David offers steady, compassionate support when things feel overwhelming.
He draws on Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person's own goals and pace. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy when those approaches suit a person's needs. Sessions are practical and direct - people talk through what is happening, try options for coping, and notice what changes over time.
David describes his manner as respectful and faith-informed, aiming to listen without judgment. He helps people untangle guilt, shame, and impulsivity while also addressing broader issues such as adoption and foster care, emptiness, and forgiveness. The intent is to create a steady space for honest conversation and gradual change.
With a long clinical background, he emphasizes simple, usable tools for day-to-day life. People work on emotional regulation, handling panic or social anxiety, and rebuilding self-esteem. He also supports recovery from trauma and manages compassion fatigue among those feeling burned out.
Sessions are offered in English and David accepts international clients. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule according to his availability.
Approaches and remote care that focus on your goals
David commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on what matters to the person in front of him and helps people set their own pace and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is also part of his toolbox and focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical behavior changes to ease anxiety, panic, and low mood.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. He will talk with each person about their concerns, goals, and preferences, and then recommend ways of working that fit those needs. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed. Many people find remote sessions help them stay consistent with therapy while managing day-to-day responsibilities.
