David Daroff
Licensed Professional Counselor
In high school, David Daroff felt the Lord calling him to make a public commitment to follow Him and go into full-time Christian ministry. It was this commitment that guided his choices of study and pursuit of degrees. He has over 20 years of experience in pastoral ministry as a senior pastor and youth pastor. During this time, David spent many hours in pastoral counseling, discipleship, problem-solving, and using spiritual gifts and biblical authority to help people seek out positive ways to live, work, and maintain relationships.
Before coming to the Marriage Recovery Center, David also worked as a professional counselor with the Department of Corrections in Wyoming and served in the Men’s Maximum-Security Prison. He saw this as an opportunity to answer the call to go to those in prison, not only to visit but also to bring light to those with very little hope.
David loves finding ways to help modify behaviors so they better conform to God’s intended purposes for our lives. He believes that solutions are not always isolated events that magically cure everything and therapy takes work on the part of the client and the counselor. He will listen to really hear your story, then devise a therapy plan with you including behavior modification and cognitive, client-centered, existential, and/or narrative therapy techniques to help guide you to the results you seek.

Navigating Stress and Depression Around the Holidays
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. As I write this, Thanksgiving is coming up and, this year, my mother and daughter will join my wife and me, as well as an aunt who I rarely see. Others have also been or will soon be invited so we can fill the home with loved ones and enjoy time together for at least a few hours. Holidays can be a wonderful time to bring together the family that you don’t get to see every day. But, for some people, the holidays also bring stress, loneliness, or depression. To-do lists pile up this time of year. Broken relationships and loneliness can really stand out. There is no quick cure, nor an easy method you can use to ward off holiday depression or stress. But, whatever the reason for these problems, there are some things you can do to try to ward them off, or at least minimize their impact on your life.
You Reap What You Sow
I learned long ago the rule “garbage in, garbage out.” In other words, you usually get out what you put in. It is the idea of sowing and reaping. If all I plant is corn then that is all I will get. This concept can be applied to marriage as well. What do you want to reap in your relationship? Do you want a relationship that is meaningful, helpful, loving, caring and affectionate? Are you sowing what’s necessary to meet that goal? If not, perhaps you need to sow something else. In other words, change what you’re doing.
Money and Relationship Manipulation
Is money important to us? Does it influence us? Most people would agree that money is a powerful motivator that can be used for good or bad. It can help a relationship grow and feel secure or it can be used as a manipulative tool. The Bible teaches that love is the value we need to exude. Love is about relationship.
