David Spann, LCSW, LISW

David Spann brings 29 years of clinical practice to his work supporting individuals, couples, and families through addiction, trauma, grief, anxiety, mood disorders, and complex life transitions. He combines formal education in psychology and social work with extensive hands-on experience in outpatient, residential, and hospital settings, including work at a Naval Hospital with Active Duty Marines. This background shapes a practical, systems-oriented approach that attends to how trauma, mental illness, and addiction influence family dynamics and overall quality of life.

He is credentialed as an LCSW and an LISW - LCSW denotes Licensed Clinical Social Worker and LISW denotes Licensed Independent Social Worker - and he integrates evidence-based interventions such as Trauma-Focused CBT, Cognitive Processing Therapy, family systems work, motivational interviewing, DBT skills, and mindfulness practices into treatment. His philosophy emphasizes strengths, solutions, and a holistic view of healing so clients can develop greater intimacy, resilience, and purpose.

Beyond direct clinical care, Mr. Spann has extensive experience in leadership, program development, training, and public education. He has provided crisis intervention training for law enforcement, served as a state trainer for the NAMI Family to Family program, and led seminars on grief, communication, anger management, boundaries, and relational enrichment.
