Davina supports young adults and adults who find themselves struggling with challenging relationship dynamics, intrusive thoughts, life transitions, low mood, and perfectionism. She understands how these experiences can negatively affect your quality of life and is here to support you as you find balance in these areas.
Davina’s therapeutic approach is tailored to your unique needs and draws from a range of modalities including SFBT, better known as Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to collaboratively achieve your therapeutic goals. As someone who holds many intersecting identities, Davina works with diverse populations and provides therapy from an anti-oppressive framework. With Davina, you can always expect to receive a safe, warm, and non-judgmental space where you can freely explore, unpack, and process your thoughts as you work towards better outcomes. She encourages open and honest communication to build and strengthen therapeutic relationships. Davina recognizes that it takes courage to start therapy. She’ll meet you where you’re at and empower you with tools to lead a healthy and balanced life.
Outside of therapy, Davina finds joy in connecting with her loved ones, discovering new food places, and doing her own nails (a hobby she picked up during the pandemic). She enjoys spending quality time with friends and family, watching movies, or going out for dinner. She prioritizes her solo time as it allows her to reflect, journal, pray or meditate.
