I am a professional counselor, certified executive, and health coach. I have nine years of experience helping others overcome challenges and create purposeful, meaningful lives. I have worked with clients with various concerns, including chronic pain, chronic illness, stress, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship issues, family problems, and career challenges. Many individuals I have worked with have had traumatic experiences.
As a counselor and coach, one of my greatest strengths includes noticing and appreciating each person's unique characteristics. I do not treat everyone using the same approach because each person's response to stress, motivation to change, decision-making, relationship-building, and thinking styles are unique. As a result, I customize my approach accordingly. I draw from my extensive training in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Neuroscience, Motivational Interviewing, Positive (Strengths-based) Psychology, Mind-Body Medicine, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to draw out the best in you.
I view the therapeutic environment as a safe place to explore relationships, whether those relationships are with people (family, co-workers, partners) or things (food or money). I also believe an important part of therapy is addressing the social, economic, and cultural influences on a person and that the therapy process should be collaborative, with the client seen as the “expert” on their life.
It takes great courage to take the first steps toward change, seek a more fulfilling and happier life, and determine your personal goals. But, if you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you on this journey to create your best life.
I look forward to working with you!

After feeling like a brick wall had been hit with my first therapist, I chose a new therapist. There were many good ones to choose from, but something about Dr. Davis' information made me think she would be a good fit for my needs, which at the time, included working through self-esteem, past relationship patterns, and childhood issues of feeling unlovable. She gave me focused attention, time, and resources to begin plowing through these issues. She listened, made me feel heard and understood, and prompted me to move in a direction of growth. I feel like she helped clear my brain, discarding worn-out patterns of behaviour and thought, and replacing them with healthy thinking processes. She is amazing, and you will be lucky to have her in your corner.

Love, love, love Dr. Davis!!! She's such an incredible person who genuinely vests in the well-being of her clients and matches her words with her actions. She's reached out to me when I became financially pinched and paused my subscription, though she wasn't obligated at the time. She responds to any communications, gets to know you as a person, and has the psychological knowledge to read your moods and behaviors during sessions to help you through any situations or events you could be going through at the time. I've always felt safe during our sessions and left every session feeling as though a small load has been relieved from my shoulders. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Davis to anyone I know!

Dr. Davis has been phenomenal in addressing my anxiety, both in the actual healing and also in the understanding of what caused me to develop these thought patterns. I feel like I finally have the tools to heal myself and the coaching to be successful quickly. While I was skeptical in virtual therapy at first, she's proven to be the solution I needed!

Amazing therapist, amazing person overall. I only spoke with her for about 20 mins, and she was upfront and honest about the type of therapist I would need and be best for my situation in order to be successfull and grow in therapy. She is very kind, gracious, and intuitive to peoples needs and genuinly cares about the outcome of her patients is what I got from our brief session and that should speak volumes. I would highly recommend her and you'd be lucky to have her
