David Orvin, LISW
Take it from someone who’s done it…you can change. Regardless of the state of the world, the state of the economy or your own personal state of mind, David Orvin believes that tough situations often go together with golden opportunities that can change your life for the better. David is a licensed independent social worker and the newest member of the Bridges Psychiatry team. His treatment approach is rooted in the belief that sometimes the only thing we can change is our attitudes and reactions “and by changing these, we can find serenity, hope and the confidence needed to accomplish new goals”. Accomplishing new goals is something about which David has experienced “from a raucous youth in Charleston ‘rock ’n rolling’, through college days at Emory University, and eventually in Nashville working in the music industry. David pursued his next career chapter “exercising” his Bachelor of Arts in Psychology degree by volunteering at an inpatient alcohol and drug treatment program for Davidson County, TN inmates “I was getting burned out on the bar scene and traveling…so when the Davidson County Sheriff’s Department offered me a full-time job as a primary counselor…I felt very fortunate to have found something that I loved as much as music.” David went on to earn his master’s degree and as a practicing licensed independent clinical social worker, focuses on chemical dependency assessment and treatment, as well as family, couples, and individual counseling. To schedule a counseling session (or a jam session), just call and ask for David!
