David Krych , LCSW

David Krych is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Madison, Wisconsin, who brings a lived understanding of recovery together with extensive clinical experience. He has 19 years of practice helping people navigate addiction, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, trauma, grief, mood conditions, and the everyday stresses that can make life feel overwhelming.

Early in his career he worked closely with adolescents and young men facing involvement with the juvenile justice system and placement outside their homes. After a period away from counseling to pursue landscaping and outdoor work, he engaged deeply with his own recovery from alcohol and substance use, learning from mentors and peers what sustained recovery requires. That experience led him to a professional focus on substance use and the many factors that contribute to it.

He now works in a program serving people who seek and want help, drawing on a broad clinical background to meet a wide range of concerns. David emphasizes getting to know each person - their goals, strengths, and lived experience - and then partnering with them to build practical skills and insight. He values self-acceptance and compassion as foundations for change and supports clients in finding greater peace, meaning, and direction in their lives. LCSW indicates advanced training and licensure in clinical social work, reflecting his professional qualification to provide clinical care.
