You may be managing a lot—responsibilities, relationships, expectations—and still feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from yourself. Therapy can be a space to make sense of what you’re carrying and decide how you want to move forward. I’m Dr. Lesli Davis, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist with more than 15 years of experience across clinical and community settings. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, substance use, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative, direct, and grounded in compassion. I bring humor, flexibility, and accountability to our work while respecting your lived experience and the cultural and systemic factors that shape your life. I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you respond differently to difficult thoughts and feelings, clarify what matters to you, and take meaningful steps toward a life aligned with your values. Together, we can work toward practical changes without requiring you to have everything figured out first. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice from North Carolina Central University and my master’s and doctorate in Social Work from Simmons University.
