About Damaris

Dr. Damaris Davila Negron is a bilingual psychologist licensed in Florida with 21 years of professional experience. She speaks English and Spanish and supports people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. She aims to meet clients where they are and help them take the first step toward change.

Her style is respectful and compassionate. She adapts conversations and plans to each person's needs. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use between meetings as well as understanding what is keeping them stuck.

Dr. Davila Negron uses a mix of well-known therapy methods. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and make committed changes. Somatic approaches are used when body sensations are part of the problem.

Many clients come wanting help with relationship worries, feelings of abandonment, or attachment concerns. Others bring struggles with body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, codependency, or the fallout from separation and domestic violence. She also supports people coping with guilt, shame, loneliness, and fertility challenges.

Her work is collaborative. She helps people set small, doable goals and checks in on progress. If you are ready to begin, she invites you to take the first step and complete the brief matching questionnaire to schedule a session.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following what matters to the person. This approach helps people feel heard and gives space to explore feelings and choices. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change patterns that cause distress. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, called ACT, helps people clarify their values and take small steps toward a more meaningful life while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then decide together which methods to try first. That collaborative process means plans can change as the work moves forward.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also make it simpler to practice new skills in real time and to schedule meetings around work, caregiving, or medical appointments.
