About Davis
Davis Rice is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Maryland with 12 years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, family and grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting, anger, career concerns, and ADHD. He previously worked at a nonprofit agency and now sees people in private practice. He speaks English and accepts international clients.
Rice holds two master's degrees - an MA in English from the College of William and Mary and an MS in Counseling from Johns Hopkins. Before counseling he taught English and Latin in public high schools for more than thirty years. That teaching background shapes a direct, clear style in sessions and a comfort talking about life stages and family roles.
In sessions he tends to use client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques. He listens, reflects what he hears, and offers practical suggestions that clients can try between meetings. He uses narrative and solution-focused ideas when it helps a person reframe problems or set short-term goals.
For someone dealing with anger - losing temper with people close to them, resentment that builds, or workplace frustration - he works on recognizing patterns, testing new responses, and developing manageable skills. Rice also addresses related issues such as impulsivity, communication problems, and guilt or shame that often sit alongside anger.
His approach is straightforward and pragmatic. New clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
Approaches used in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on attentive listening and reflecting back what the client says. It helps people feel understood and clarifies what they want to change. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people test new ways of responding to triggers like anger or anxiety.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to try first based on goals and what feels practical. Sessions can shift methods over time as patterns and needs become clearer.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, shorten travel time, or allow for a shorter check-in when schedules are tight. Discussing session length and structure up front helps align therapy with everyday life and responsibilities.
