About Clarissa

Clarissa Davis is a licensed counselor who helps people manage stress and anxiety and navigate life’s pressures. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through worries and take practical steps toward change. Her style is supportive and direct, aimed at making small shifts that add up over time.

With seven years of clinical experience, Clarissa draws on client-centered methods to keep sessions focused on each person's needs. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of responding. Motivational interviewing helps when someone feels stuck and wants to find the energy to make a change.

Clarissa has worked with people facing parenting challenges, anger, career stress, grief, relationship strains, and self-esteem concerns. She pays attention to attachment and communication patterns that often affect daily life. She also supports clients dealing with blended family issues, separation, pregnancy and childbirth transitions, workplace problems, and young adult concerns.

Sessions are practical and goal-oriented, with short-term strategies and longer-term skills as needed. Clarissa encourages clients to set realistic steps and track progress between meetings. She frames therapy as a collaborative effort and adjusts techniques based on what’s helping most.

Clarissa holds LPC-MHSP (Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Service Provider) and LMHC credentials and practices in Florida. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not take international clients.

How Clarissa’s approaches fit with online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust so people feel heard and respected; it helps when someone needs a steady, empathetic space to sort through stress and decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the thoughts that shape feelings and behaviors and teaches clear techniques to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety and low mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify what they want and find their own reasons to change, which can be helpful for career shifts, parenting goals, or breaking unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and personal preferences. That plan can change as progress is made, and techniques are combined when that helps.

Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the current online options before booking. Many people find online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, handle follow-up check-ins, or practice skills between meetings without long travel. Others appreciate shorter or more frequent check-ins when working through a stressful life change. Talk with the therapist during the scheduling step to decide what session rhythm and format will work best for everyday life.
