Getting to know Lara Davis

Hi there, I'm Lara! Hi, my name is Lara Davis, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 16 years of professional experience. I have helped clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. My approach I use an integrative approach depending on my clients' individual needs. Therapeutic approaches may include one or a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), interpersonal, solution-focused, and client-centered methods. My focus I work with a wide variety of clients but mostly see individuals suffering from depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and relationship problems. My communication style I create a warm, caring environment for my clients with an emphasis on empathy and tuning in to their needs. I also enjoy an interactive approach, asking clients what is working and where they would like to focus. My journey to therapy I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Psychology in 1997 and worked in a variety of venues. My journey changed direction when I spent nine years in corporate America. However, I found "climbing the ladder" unfulfilling and knew I wasn't following my passion. I enrolled in graduate school, received my master's degree, and have been working in hospitals, clinics, schools, and most recently private practice for 16 years. My goals for you I set goals at the client's pace and review them with their approval before moving forward. I prefer goals that are specific, attainable, and measurable. My first session with you Clients should expect their first session with me to involve questions in a nonjudgmental environment, aimed at gaining a ?big picture? understanding of what is going on in their life.
