About Clarissa
Clarissa Davis is an LPC-MHSP (Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Service Provider) and an LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) with seven years of practice. She is based in Florida and works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, parenting strains, anger, career challenges, relationship and family worries, grief, and self-esteem.
She uses straightforward conversation to help people sort through what feels overwhelming. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small steps that make daily life easier. Clarissa listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps people try different ways of responding.
Her work draws on client-centered therapy, so the person’s priorities shape each session. She also uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques appear when someone wants clear goals and practical next steps.
Many people come when parenting feels out of balance, when work stress spills into home life, or when a major change requires new coping skills. Clarissa helps parents and adults clarify what matters and set achievable changes rather than promising quick fixes.
Her tone is direct and practical. She encourages honest talk about the hard parts and helps map small, realistic actions. To begin, readers are asked to confirm session options and scheduling details through the platform before booking.
How sessions work
How Clarissa applies therapeutic approaches online
Client-centered therapy places the person's priorities at the center of sessions. It involves reflective listening and letting the client's concerns guide what is discussed and worked on. This approach helps when someone needs a space to sort out feelings and decide what matters most.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting patterns of thought that feed stress and unhelpful behavior. It uses simple exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and parenting reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Clarissa will explore goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before, and then suggest methods that fit. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs change.
Session logistics and formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current options before scheduling. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when full-length sessions are difficult. They can also make it simpler to continue work between appointments with brief action steps and goal tracking.
