Background and approach

Bilingual in English and Spanish, she has worked extensively with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, and self-esteem concerns.

Her background includes attention to issues such as abandonment and attachment, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, control and dependent personality patterns, and the emotional impacts of divorce, domestic violence, fertility struggles, guilt, and isolation. Her approach emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person’s unique situation.

Dr. Davila Negron draws from evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Client-Centered Therapy, and somatic techniques to address thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and bodily responses.

She encourages clients to recognize the courage it takes to begin therapy and supports practical steps toward greater well-being and coping. Services are offered from her Florida practice with flexibility for English- or Spanish-speaking clients seeking thoughtful, individualized care.

Practical Approaches and Online Therapy Options

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression, offering concrete strategies for coping and problem solving. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and build psychological flexibility by learning to accept difficult internal experiences while committing to meaningful action. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, empathetic therapeutic relationship in which the therapist listens deeply and helps clients find their own solutions and personal growth.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to explore which methods align with their goals, needs, and preferences, and may draw on more than one approach to create a tailored plan that evolves over time.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care from Florida while using the communication style that best supports daily life, whether someone prefers real-time conversations or text-based check-ins.
