Meet Therapist David Brockett.
David’s specialties include working with depression, anxiety, stress management, self-esteem issues, drug/alcohol and other addiction issues, LGBTQ issues, as well as loss and grief.
He is also a trained EMDR therapist and continues his education in this modality out of a desire to help those who have suffered trauma in their lives.
David Brockett received his Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Cleveland State University after completing an internship at The Cleveland Clinic in their Chronic Pain Rehabilitation Program, where he provided individual and group counseling for the patients, as well as teaching mindfulness and meditation techniques for coping with chronic pain.
He also holds degrees in Music Performance from The Cleveland Institute of Music and The University of Akron. He has been a performer for over thirty years, including several seasons playing with The Cleveland Orchestra. Neurological injury led to a shift in career focus, which includes his ongoing work with performers in mindfulness and meditation techniques for a variety of issues including performance anxiety.
He has taught master classes in mindfulness, meditation and mental health at The Cleveland Institute of Music, Northwestern University, Miami University (Ohio), and Michigan State University as well as to members of major orchestras, including The Cleveland Orchestra, the Cincinnati Symphony, and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
