About Clarissa
Clarissa Davis is a licensed counselor who focuses on practical help for people feeling overwhelmed. She listens without judgment and helps each person name what matters most. Sessions are aimed at finding steps that fit daily life and family responsibilities.
Her warm, straightforward style suits someone wanting clear tools and steady support. Clarissa is licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Service Provider, LPC-MHSP, and as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC.
Background and approach
She has seven years of clinical experience working with concerns like stress, anxiety, parenting, anger, and career struggles. She also addresses grief, self-esteem, depression, and coaching for life transitions. In sessions she draws on client-centered methods to follow each person’s priorities.
She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot patterns that keep problems going and to try small experiments that can change them. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas help when someone wants to clarify goals and move forward quickly. Clarissa practices from Florida and conducts sessions in English.
She offers short-term and longer-term work depending on what someone needs. Her approach is collaborative and action-oriented, with attention to what fits a person’s schedule and family life. People who reach out can expect practical strategies, clear talking, and steady encouragement as they work through stressful times and life changes.
Approach and online options that fit family life
Client-centered therapy starts by following the person’s lead. The therapist listens closely and helps people name what matters most, making room for individual priorities and family routines. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems ticking and uses small experiments to create change; it is often used for anxiety, stress, and low mood.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Clarissa will collaborate with each client to figure out which methods suit their goals and daily life. Together they decide whether to focus on short-term solutions, skill building, or deeper exploration depending on needs and preferences.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations, phone sessions offer a simpler option, and live chat or text messaging can help maintain momentum between scheduled meetings. These formats provide flexibility for those balancing work, parenting, and other commitments while still getting regular therapeutic support.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Motivational Interviewing
A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
