About me

I am a licensed clinical social worker living in Florida with over 15 years of experience working as an individual, family and group therapist. I have worked with clients in a wide range of concerns including trauma, depression, anxiety, anger issues, parenting problems, relationship issues, OCD and ADHD. The majority of my work has been as an "in-home therapist" guiding children and parents as they overcome past abuse, neglect and grief/loss issues.

My counseling style is personable and engaging. I am non-judgmental and hold unconditional positive regard for all. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, dialectal behavioral, psychodynamic and trauma-focused therapies . I will collaborate to discover what type of counseling will benefit you the most. Staying on task by developing interventions to achieve your goal is central to overcoming any challenges.

It is an honor and privilege to work with everyone as they start the tough, but rewarding journey to achieve a more joyful and happier life.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Michael Davis. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Michael Davis is such a supportive and understanding person. I’ve had trouble finding a good therapist who could understand my needs and concerns while also providing insightful feedback on how to improve myself. I’ve never had a good therapist as Michael, and I feel so lucky to have found him for myself. I’m someone who struggles to ask myself the right questions and find the right answers, but Michael really helps guide you in the right direction to figure out how we can help reframe our lives and live our best version of ourselves. I recommend just giving Michael a chance, and thank you Michael for always being proactive with me and giving me positive feedback.

Michael is hands down the best therapist I’ve tried. He is attentive with his listening and engages to let you know he’s understanding you. He comes up with systems and coping mechanisms that work for me specifically, that have really changed my day to day.
