Work with David

Who is This For...

This Work Is for You If —

 

You have finished the book and want support in living what you have learned, not just understanding it.

 

You are navigating emotional pain, anxiety, fear, or patterns that keep returning despite your best efforts to change them.

 

You want a grounded, experienced guide to help you slow down, feel what is actually happening beneath the surface, and learn how to release it.

 

You are drawn to working in community with others on the same path.

 

You are a seeker, a clinician, a healer, or a helping professional who wants to do this work personally before offering it to others.

Heart-Centered Therapist

What to Expect

Grounded. Gentle. Real.

Every group follows the same quiet rhythm. We begin by arriving: taking time to notice the body, the breath, and the present moment. From there, we work with whatever is most alive for you, using the principles and practices of the book as our guide.

 

It is an experiential learning environment, a practice space, where you study the teachings and discover what it feels like to actually release what disturbs you rather than simply talking about it.

 

Sessions are conducted online via Zoom. All times are Eastern.

Please Note:

For safety reasons, group Zoom sessions are not appropriate for anyone with a history of significant trauma symptoms or higher-risk concerns such as PTSD, dissociation, or self-harm. If you are unsure whether this applies to you, please contact David before applying. If it does apply, I encourage you to reach out to a licensed provider in your area for support.

The Courageous Seeker Group Experience

8 WEEKS  ·  $50 PER SESSION  ·  ZOOM

Where the Book Becomes Something You Live Together.

This group is where the book stops being something you read and becomes something you live. It is not an academic experience. It is a heart-centered process in which your understanding deepens through direct experience, alongside others who are walking the same path.

 

Each session follows the same simple, reliable rhythm so that your body and nervous system can settle and trust the process. We begin by arriving, noticing breath, body, and the present moment, and letting go. From there, a short teaching introduces a single essential theme from the book. Questions and real-life examples are welcomed, not as problems to solve but as doorways to deeper awareness that benefit the entire group.

 

Groups are small by design: a minimum of eight and a maximum of twelve participants. This is intentional. The intimacy matters.

Participants choose one weekly time and commit to it for all eight consecutive sessions; switching groups or days is not permitted once a cohort begins. Each session is 90 minutes.

The Courageous Seeker Professional Study Group

8 WEEKS  ·  $50 PER SESSION  ·  ZOOM

The Inner Life of the Practitioner Matters.

This 8-week professional study group is designed for licensed clinicians, counselors, coaches, clergy, healers, and helping professionals who want to explore the core teachings of The Courageous Seeker in a grounded, reflective, and experiential way.

 

This is not a continuing education course, clinical supervision, consultation, certification, or psychotherapy. It is a small-group educational experience for professionals seeking to deepen their understanding of mindfulness, emotional awareness, self-mastery, compassion, and the practice of letting go.

 

Together, participants explore the foundational teachings of the book — The Observer, the Five Superpowers, the Seven Keys to Happiness, the Power Statement, emotional release, and the movement from mind-centered living to heart-centered presence. Any use of the material with clients remains entirely at each professional's own discretion, within their scope of practice, training, license, and ethical responsibilities.

 

Groups are small by design: a minimum of eight and a maximum of twelve professionals. This is intentional. The intimacy matters.
