About Ross

Ross Davidson brings 19 years of clinical experience to his counseling work and centers care on the client’s strengths and resources.

Background and approach

He focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, mood disorders including bipolar and depression, addictions and process addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma, grief, and a wide range of related concerns. Ross blends skill teaching with supportive, person-focused guidance to help clients build practical tools for daily life.

His approach is eclectic and draws on evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and client-centered techniques. He aims to tailor strategies to each person’s needs, integrating psychological and reflective practices to address emotional pain, communication problems, codependency, and self-esteem or identity-related struggles.

Ross is licensed in New Hampshire as an LCMHC (NH LCMHC 985) and works with clients in English, accepting international clients when appropriate.

How Ross Uses Structured Approaches in Online Therapy

Ross often incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside client-centered practices in online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to address problems such as addictive behaviors. DBT emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for mood instability, intense emotions, and relationship difficulties. Client-centered techniques prioritize listening, empathy, and the client’s own goals as the foundation for change.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process and happens collaboratively. The therapist works with each person to explore which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life context, adjusting strategies over time as progress and needs evolve.

Online therapy with Ross is offered through flexible formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access care from home or while traveling, support continuity between sessions, and allow practical, skills-based work to continue in ways that fit a client’s day-to-day life.
