Work With Dr. Damion Davis

Are you having a difficult time handling the struggles in your life?

Could you use an expert opinion on what you’re going through, or a non-judgemental ear just to listen?

Do you think you could benefit the most from individualized attention?

Are you hesitant to talk to others about your problems?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then individual therapy could be the solution you’ve been seeking. Individual therapy differs from group or alternative therapy methods in the way that you are the sole focus of a single therapist who helps you develop and achieve your goals for therapy.

If you’ve been feeling hopeless or lost lately, or struggling with a problem in your life that feels unsurmountable, individual therapy could help you improve your everyday life. Individual therapy helps you win against whatever you’re battling by putting a real expert in your corner by means of a professional therapist.

So if any of these sound like you…

• You keep worrying about the same problem over and over
  

• You don’t know who you could ever trust with knowing about your secret struggle
  

• You wish there was somebody who could tell you why you feel this way
  

• You’re interested in therapy, but you don’t want to give up total control
  

• Other areas of your life are being negatively impacted by your struggle
  

• You need somebody to listen to you and your feelings for once
  

• You’re interested in therapy, but not sure how it could fit into your life
  

…Then individual therapy could be right for you.

Individual therapy is so helpful for so many people because it’s the best way to get truly customized therapy. Group therapy may have its own set of numerous advantages but if you want more control over the pacing of your therapy, the methods used, the amount of analysis or feedback you can receive, and the timing of your sessions, you owe it to yourself to look into individual therapy.

If you’re looking for help improving your everyday life – or for a more tailored therapy experience – you would be a great fit for our individual therapy services. Please reach out to me today for a free consultation for individual therapy or to schedule your first appointment.

Are you feeling hopeless, isolated and not your usual self?

Do these thoughts often enter your mind?

“I am worthless and can’t do anything about it.”

“I feel guilty for just wanting to eat, sleep and be alone.”

“I hate who I am these days.”

“I can’t stop crying, which makes me want to stay away from others.”

“I feel gut wrenching pain, but no one understands.”

“My life and the world around me are dark. I hate it, but I can’t change it.”

If you have had any variation of these thoughts and don’t feel like your usual self, chances are you may be suffering from depression.

I want you to know that you are not alone and there are people who can help. Many of my clients find relief in realizing that their struggle does not own them and that there are many options available to once again have hope for their lives.

I understand the social stigmas that come with label of being depressed, and thus aim to help clients sort out their environmental, biological and circumstantial factors while offering support and care through a very dark time in their lives.

If you are hoping to finally lighten this load and feel like yourself again, contact me today for a free consultation.

Emerging adulthood is a unique stage of life marked by growth, exploration, and transition. Between the ages of 18 and 30, many individuals are navigating important decisions related to education, career, relationships, independence, identity, and purpose. While this season can be exciting, it can also bring uncertainty, stress, self-doubt, and increased emotional challenges.

Therapy provides a supportive space to process life's transitions, strengthen self-awareness, build confidence, and develop the tools needed to navigate adulthood. Together, we'll work to help you gain clarity, manage life's challenges, and create a life that feels authentic and aligned with your values.

Most people will experience trauma in their lifetime whether it’s a car accident, abuse or neglect, the sudden death of a loved one, a violent criminal act, exposure to the violence of war, or a natural disaster.

While many people can recover from trauma over time with the love and support of family and friends and bounce back with resiliency, others may discover effects of lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, confusion, or posttraumatic stress far after the event has passed.

In these circumstances, the support, guidance and assistance of a therapist is fundamental to healing from trauma.

Trauma Symptoms

According to the four types of symptoms listed in the DSM-5

Avoidance Symptoms

• Avoiding specific locations, sights, situations, and sounds that serve as reminders of the event

• Anxiety, depression, numbness, or guilt

Re-experiencing Symptoms

• Intrusive thoughts, nightmares or flashbacks

Hyperarousal Symptoms

• Anger, irritability and hypervigilance

• Aggressive, reckless behavior, including self-harm

• Sleep disturbances

Negative Mood and Cognition Symptoms

• Loss of interest in activities that were once considered enjoyable

• Difficulty remembering details of the distressing event

• Change in habits or behavior since the trauma

Research has proven psychotherapy to be the most effective form of treatment for trauma. Most commonly, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) are used in treating trauma.

If you or someone you know match the trauma symptoms listed above, I am confident that I can help and invite you to contact me today for a free consultation.
