About Davis Rice

I am a licensed therapist located in Southern Maryland. I have been practicing therapy for over ten years, first working for a nonprofit agency, now in private practice. I have two masters degrees (MA: English, William and Mary; MS: Counseling, Johns Hopkins). At my previous position, I worked with both children and adults. My primary theoretical orientations are Rogerian (Client Centered), and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). My empathetic nature, listening skills, and practical suggestions have led to successful outcomes with my clients throughout my counseling career. I taught English and Latin in a public high school for over thirty years prior to my counseling career. I have two grown, married children. My personal interests include reading, photography, music, and spending time with my one year old golden retriever, Henry.

“I’m rather new to therapy, and skeptical in the past. But my experience with Mr. Rice has been very comfortable. I look forward to our sessions.”

“Talking with Davis is very easy. He's professional, calm, understanding and supportive. I normally don't talk about my feelings much and find it hard to share what's on my mind with others sometimes. With Davis I can just be myself, and share my thoughts as they are. I've never done therapy before, but it seems like he's exactly what you would want your therapist to be. Highly recommended.”

“Davis is an excellent therapist who is an incredibly patient, kind and supportive person through and through. Listens to all of my concerns thoroughly and responds to me with a lot of thought and care. I can’t recommend him more as a health care professional!!”

“Very empathetic and competent.”

“He is really helpful!!”

“Respectful, professional, timely”

“Davis (Dave) is an extremely understanding and patient therapist who is able to calm my nerves and anxiety and responds in a timely manner. He speaks very well, much like your favorite teacher would. I could not recommend him more to work with.”

“I’ve found our conversations to be extremely helpful in keeping me on the right path during a very difficult time in my life.”

“Rice is just the kind of therapist I've been looking for. I've only had two sessions with him, but I can already tell that this is going to be a productive partnership.”

“The service is working well and as advertised for me. Easy to find a therapist I liked. I like the app better than a regular doctors office appointment. Davis is good as well, he doesn’t just try to solve my problems, he helps me talk about them and figure it out for myself and he’s good at not pressuring me more than I can handle while still helping me accomplish my goals. I am super happy I started this app.”

“Wonderful therapist, could not ask for better!”

“He’s cool”

“Davis Rice is very professional and understanding. He makes me feel heard and understood and he sympathizes with my situation. He also has a clear plan of action and is very upfront about everything.”

“Davis is great and helping me reach my goals and calm down”

“Dr. Rice has helped me through a very difficult time in my life. I was very happy with the results I was able to obtain through therapy. I'm definitely in a better place now.”
