About Davis
Davis Rice is an LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) practicing in Maryland with 12 years of experience. He brings a background that blends counseling work in a nonprofit setting with private practice. His stated areas include stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, parenting, grief, intimacy-related issues, and ADHD.
Before counseling, he taught English and Latin in public high school for over thirty years. He also holds two master’s degrees: an MA in English from William and Mary and an MS in Counseling from Johns Hopkins. That mix of classroom and clinical experience shapes how he talks with people about everyday pressures.
Davis favors client-centered work and cognitive behavioral approaches. In sessions he listens, asks straightforward questions, and offers practical suggestions people can try between meetings. He aims to help clients notice patterns, test small changes, and build clearer ways to handle stress and relationships.
He also uses narrative and solution-focused ideas to help people reframe stories about themselves and set short-term goals. For those facing larger questions about purpose or meaning, existential ideas may be part of the conversation. Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients.
Outside of work he reads, takes photographs, listens to music, and spends time with his golden retriever, Henry. People seeking help with career, parenting, anger, or feelings of isolation may find his direct, practical style a good fit.
How his approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what someone says. It helps people feel understood and clarifies what matters to them, which can be useful for relationship stress or low self-esteem.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It breaks problems into manageable parts and tests small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or impulsivity.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Davis will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means checking what feels useful, adjusting techniques, and setting short-term steps together.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals often combine styles during remote sessions to focus on problem-solving, skill practice, or deeper reflection depending on what someone needs.
