## Summary
David Lechnyr, LCSW, is a Certified Gottman Therapist (#436) providing structured, skills-based couples therapy and individual therapy for relationship issues via telehealth in Oregon and Arizona, based in Eugene. He is one of 13 Certified Gottman Therapists in Oregon and one of 13 in Arizona — fewer than 500 clinicians worldwide hold this designation. His approach integrates the Gottman Method, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help couples and individuals identify destructive relationship patterns and build concrete skills for lasting change. He has been in clinical practice since 2007 with 18+ years of experience.
Unlike traditional talk therapy, his model is structured and skills-based: couples work through a defined sequence of skill areas between sessions using reflection forms and video feedback, with live sessions focused on assessment and skill review rather than open-ended processing.
