Davril Huggins-Looby, LPC

Davril Huggins-Looby, LPC, centers her work on the person in the room. She uses empathetic listening and practical strategies to help people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She acknowledges strengths clients already have and helps build on them so change feels manageable.

She draws on nine years of professional experience in Georgia to guide sessions. That background includes helping people with ADHD, career shifts, and the day-to-day demands of caregiving. She also supports those coping with isolation, immigration-related stress, and questions about life purpose.

Her approach combines client-centered listening with methods that aim to change unhelpful patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques help people manage strong emotions and reduce impulsive acts.

Mindfulness practices are introduced to increase moment-to-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone is unsure about change, helping them clarify goals and strengthen commitment. The overall focus is practical steps that fit into everyday life.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Clients and the therapist work together to set priorities and try strategies they can use between meetings. Davril aims to make starting therapy feel like a doable next step rather than an overwhelming leap.

How client-centered and skills-based approaches work online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's perspective. The therapist reflects concerns and helps people pick goals that matter to them, which can be useful for stress, life changes, and self-worth work.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and then tests small changes to see what helps. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood-related challenges because it gives clear tools to practice between sessions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. Those techniques can be helpful when feelings feel overwhelming or impulsive actions are a problem.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals, try approaches that fit your needs, and adjust plans based on what helps. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that feels realistic.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins can work around a break at work, or video sessions let people use visual cues during conversation. Licensed professionals often use a mix of session styles to match each person's routine and needs.
