More about Davis

  • 12 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCPC

I am a licensed therapist located in Southern Maryland. I have been practicing therapy for over ten years, first working for a nonprofit agency, now in private practice. I have two masters degrees (MA: English, William and Mary; MS: Counseling, Johns Hopkins). At my previous position, I worked with both children and adults. My primary theoretical orientations are Rogerian (Client Centered), and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). My empathetic nature, listening skills, and practical suggestions have led to successful outcomes with my clients throughout my counseling career. I taught English and Latin in a public high school for over thirty years prior to my counseling career. I have two grown, married children. My personal interests include reading, photography, music, and spending time with my one year old golden retriever, Henry.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Every session we have goes so smoothly that neither one of us can believe how fast the time goes, we have to set an alarm or we will just keep talking, I have great confidence in my therapist and his personality gets my personality which is a relief when you are a little strange like I am, lol.

Very easy to schedule meetings. Very easy to attend. I find Davis helpful with working through my problems, he understands what I’m trying to accomplish, most helpful they are willing to work at what speed or intensity I want to so I can’t have an excuse to run away and hide. I would recommend this to the people I love and care about most in the world. That’s the best I can say. I’m not eloquent, this is the cheapest, easiest to attend, easiest to participate, form of therapy and I’ve done a bunch of other routes.

I find this service and Davis very helpful. Davis helps me think through my problems and doesn’t make me feel bad about myself while still helping to keep me accountable. Davis helps me move forward without berating me or making me feel bad. Davis pays attention to my goals and traits and remembers them in later meetings which is wonderful because I don’t have to go over every life event every meeting, Davis actually pays attention and is helping me keep on track. I would recommend this service or therapy in general to family, friends, enemies, and literally everyone.
