David W. Ferguson, LICSW
Psychotherapist – Telepsych
Dr. Ferguson is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker/Psychotherapist who has a Doctorate in Ministry. He holds advanced degrees from Loyola University Chicago, St. Louis University, and Claremont School of Theology.
Throughout his 37 years of experience, Dr. Ferguson has had a broad range of experience in the field of clinical social work. This has encompassed work in intensive psychiatric hospital units, the position of Clinical Supervisor at a residential psychiatric facility, therapy and consultation for a college prep boarding school, and individual and couples therapy. He has considerable experience working with addictions, anxiety, depression, personality disorders, trauma – including sexual assault – eating disorders, and the many-faceted issues facing the LGBTQ+ community. His private practice has focused on families and marital counseling.
Dr. Ferguson has a well-defined ability to establish a therapeutic alliance with both adolescents and adults, enabling them to work towards optimal mental health. Outside of his work, he enjoys spending time with his wife, children, and grandchildren.
Nota bene: In light of the recent escalation of attention to racial issues throughout our country, I would like to express my commitment to working with clients in a way that takes into consideration the particulars and complexities of their identities. I am aggrieved by the anger and mistrust that has developed as a result of systemic oppression of minorities and am firmly committed to shedding light on the impact that these issues have on mental health.
