About Davina
Davina Murray is an Ohio LPCC with 17 years of professional experience. She works with adults who want to manage anger, build self-esteem, and cope with depression or major life changes. She also helps people who struggle with motivation, attention differences, and stress from caregiving.
Davina frames the person as the expert on their own story. She looks for strengths people already have and uses those strengths to address patterns that cause trouble. Sessions are practical and conversational rather than overly technical.
Her approach draws on Client-Centered methods to make space for each person's perspective. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking patterns that feed anger and low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools and mindfulness practices appear when people need skills for emotional regulation and impulse control.
In sessions she talks through real situations people face at work, home, and in relationships. She focuses on small, usable strategies you can try between appointments. That might include tracking triggers, practicing short coping skills, or testing new ways of speaking up.
People who choose Davina can expect straightforward conversations about goals and progress. She helps clarify what gets in the way of feeling more in control and what concrete steps to try next. To begin, clients use the site's matching and scheduling process to book a first session.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what you say so you feel understood and can weigh options. It helps when someone is sorting out anger triggers, relationship communication, or life decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions; it includes exercises to test alternative thinking and change unhelpful behavior patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Davina will collaborate with clients to decide which tools to try first based on goals and what feels manageable. That means trying skills, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan rather than assuming a single method will fit forever.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. They can also let someone choose an audio-only option if they prefer not to be on camera or need a lower-bandwidth connection. Talk with the therapist during the matching process about what will work best in everyday life and which session rhythm to try first.
