About Davina
Davina Murray is an Ohio LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) with 17 years of professional experience. She focuses on anger, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, and ADHD. She meets people who are fed up with snapping at loved ones, overwhelmed by resentment, or worn down by low motivation and mood. She speaks English and practices in Ohio.
Davina uses a straightforward, person-focused approach. She treats the person as the expert in their own story and works alongside them to build on strengths. Sessions often involve practical skills for handling frustration, ways to shift unhelpful thinking, and techniques to steady mood and impulsive reactions.
Her methods draw on client-centered ideas, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior tools, and mindfulness practices. That means conversations that pay attention to what matters to the client, experiments in changing behavior, emotion regulation skills, and brief mindfulness exercises to interrupt reactive patterns.
She aims to help people with real-life problems like communication breakdowns, caregiver stress, feelings of emptiness, panic attacks, and social anxiety. She also supports people managing mood disorders or the challenges of forgiveness, guilt, and shame.

How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and perspectives. In practice this means the therapist listens, reflects what matters to the client, and helps prioritize the problems the client wants to solve. It suits people who want conversations shaped around their experience rather than a rigid plan.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Sessions include short experiments and homework to test new ways of thinking and acting, useful for anger, depression, and impulsivity. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes concrete emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills to manage intense reactions and reduce impulsive responses.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying skills, checking what helps, and adjusting the focus as progress is made.

Many people appreciate being able to fit sessions into a busy week without long commutes, to use therapy during a work break, or to choose a shorter check-in when life is hectic. Online work can make it easier to practice skills in daily life and bring immediate concerns into session for focused problem solving.
