Early on, David developed his clinical skills by working with inmates in the New York State Correctional System and outpatient clients at the psychiatric clinic of St. Vincent’s Hospital in NYC.
In 2009, David partnered with Jane Strong to create The Equus Effect, a unique experiential learning with horses program, which has seen upwards of 2,000 participants since its formal rollout as a non-profit in 2012. In 2017, he concurrently began delivering the program at the renowned High Watch Recovery Center in Kent, CT. The Equus Effect program is currently being researched by the VA and Yale University through a 2-year study to determine feasibility and acceptability within a randomized clinical trial design.
