David Ordan, LPC

David Ordan is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin who focuses on relationship work and men seeking career or dating guidance. He draws on five years of clinical experience and a practical, goal-oriented style. David helps people name what’s getting in the way and find straightforward steps to move forward.

He earned a Master of Science in Clinical Counseling from Mount Mary University in Milwaukee. That training informs his solution-focused brief counseling approach, which centers on building strengths people already have. Sessions look at key relationships and life roles to uncover practical ways to improve day-to-day functioning.

David often works with singles and couples and supports men through career transitions and dating concerns. He aims to help people reclaim hope, sharpen goals, and take manageable actions toward the future they want. Jealousy, communication problems, and blended family concerns are among the issues he addresses.

His style is direct but respectful. He listens for what matters most, highlights existing resources, and collaborates on concrete steps. Motivational conversations and narrative work may be used to clarify values and choices.

People who come to him for help with grief, self-esteem, parenting stress, or life changes will find an emphasis on practical skills and steady problem solving. If someone wants coaching around career direction or help handling intimacy-related issues, he combines relationship work with career-focused problem solving.

How his approaches fit into online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to name their values and take small actions that match those values. It is often used when someone wants to move past stuck patterns and live with more purpose. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels heard and can make their own choices. It helps when someone needs space to sort out feelings and figure out next steps. The Gottman Method looks at communication patterns in relationships and teaches practical skills to improve how partners handle conflict and connection.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. David collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. He may combine elements from different approaches and adjust over time based on what is helping.

Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not listed in the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time for those balancing work and family. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively in distance work, and David will help plan sessions so they fit your schedule and objectives.
