David Sommers
Psychologist
I work with individuals and couples, adults ages 18 -85. I see people primarily in the evening. I work primarily with mood and anxiety disorders and also have substantial experience working with serious mental illnesses.I am a clinical psychologist with 30 years of experience working in a broad variety of settings - hospital based, community mental health and private practice. My primary therapy approaches are cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal and problem solving.
Our work will involve identifying clearly defined goals and a plan for how we will achieve these goals. I am also aware that as we work toward your goals other things happen in life and there will be times detours are needed and often prove valuable

Rates & Insurance
Breakthrough has not yet partnered with all insurance companies, but you or the therapist you select may contact your insurer about covering your online care. We strive to accept all insurers but we can not guarantee coverage.
If you receive care on Breakthrough but your insurer declines coverage, you will be billed at the therapist's self-pay rate.
If you can not find a therapist who accepts your insurance, call us at 1-888-907-3208 and we will try to find a therapist who can see you.
