“I believe healing happens when we feel safe enough to listen to ourselves with curiosity

and compassion. My work is grounded, relational, and gently informed by spirituality,

meaning-making, and inner wisdom. I specialize in Internal Family Systems (IFS), which

helps clients understand and care for the different “parts” of themselves — especially

those shaped by pain, protection, or survival. I also integrate Cognitive Behavioral

Therapy (CBT) to support clients in noticing patterns in thoughts and behaviors and

developing practical tools for everyday life.

I hold a BA in Psychology from the University of North Florida (2011) and a Master’s in

Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University (2023). My clinical experience

includes 13 years working in school settings with at-risk teens, along with several years

in private practice. I’ve worked with Fear Less Therapy, Hall Family Therapy (NC), and

Soul Health Center (NC), supporting individuals and couples through anxiety,

depression, relationship challenges, identity exploration, burnout, and major life

transitions. In October 2025, I founded Soul Vibes Counseling Services LLC, where I

continue to offer thoughtful, client-centered care.

I’m LGBTQ+ affirming and strive to create a space that feels calm, welcoming, and

genuine — a place where you don’t have to perform or have everything figured out.

Therapy with me is collaborative and paced to your needs, with the goal of helping you

build self-trust, clarity, and a deeper sense of alignment with who you are and what

matters most to you.”

Provides services from holistic and spiritual lens in addition to a cognitive behavioral approach.

I discovered my mission when I realized how powerful and beautiful love is. I got my Bachelor's degree in Psychology with a minor in Health Administration at Florida Atlantic University and proceeded to receive my Master's degree at the University of Central Florida in Marriage, Couples, and Family counseling. My mission is helping others to rediscover who they are and teach them to be secure within themselves so that they can be secure in the relationships they have with others.

I work with individuals, children, and families, helping them rebuild life skills while addressing mental health challenges. I completed my Bachelor’s in Psychology at the University of South Florida and earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University. I am bilingual in both English and Spanish, and I’ve worked extensively with Hispanic families, making me uniquely suited to address their specific needs.

My additional training includes Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Integrative Harm Reduction Techniques, and I’m currently undergoing training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

I am David Shoots, an LCSW, DDiv and a Qualified Supervisor for MHC and CSW. I have spent the past 27 years working with Trauma, anxiety, self esteem, Couples and Veterans. I have a deep commitment in working with all of my clients with fidelity and compassion. I love what I do and am very committed to providing the best and most ethical services available. You don't have to stay where you are. There has to be a different way to handle what is presently going on in your life.

I believe that trauma and challenging life transitions look different for everyone. It can come from a single overwhelming event, a series of painful experiences, or the quiet accumulation of stress, loss, or unmet needs over time. In my practice, I take a broad and compassionate view of trauma—one that honors your unique story and the ways you’ve learned to cope and survive. Whether you’re healing from past experiences, navigating a difficult life transition, or simply feeling stuck, therapy offers a space to begin making sense of what’s happened and reconnecting with yourself in new ways.
