Meet Dr. David Connell

I am a fully licensed clinical psychologist practicing psychotherapy/counseling for over 53 years. For many years the folks I treat tell me I’m different from other therapists they have tried. I tend to be very quick to catch on with what is the essence of people’s problems and issues. These quickly gained therapeutic insights are then shared with down to earth, “keep it real”, kind of language that helps people quickly reach deeper understanding of their unique set of issues. I don’t just listen, I engage.

Different than Other Therapists

I am different from other therapists because I am trained and have practiced for years from a perspective called Transpersonal Psychology, a blending of psychotherapy and spirituality. Within this perspective, I believe that the therapist and client are co-learners, discovering their own evolutionary path through emotional healing and spiritual growth. Promoting emotional healing through spiritual connectedness is my passion and life’s work. While I do not proselytize or try to convert people to a spiritual perspective, I have a deeply committed spiritual consciousness and endeavor to earnestly walk this committed path.

My Approach

My style is to be warm, non-judgmental, and very active with clients instead of just a supportive listener. My authentic style and communication approach, bringing humor and technical skills together help bring the Transpersonal perspective to life for those who wish to optimize their own journey of healing and growth.


I am especially quick to catch on and tend to give a lot of feedback and information to enable clients to raise their awareness and to develop new tools to better manage their life.
