Lisa Davis LMHC

I am licensed in Rhode Island as an LMHC. I have a Masters in Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Johnsons and Wales University and graduated in 2018. I also have a Masters in Elementary and Special Education from Lesley University which I earned in 1993. I have worked as an outpatient therapist for over eight years and have extensive experience with crisis management,PTSD, dual diagnosis, anger management, women who have left abusive relationships, parenting, and parent/child conflict. I also have expertise in working with mood and thought disorders, anxiety, and depression. I see clients who have gender dysphoria and I enjoy working with the LGBTQIA+ community. I have experience working with transgender clients. I am a skilled diagnostician and work with clients to help them understand their diagnoses. i believe good mental health is a necessary part of being healthy and living rich rewarding life full of all kinds of experiences. Engaging in mental health therapy can be a challenging, yet rewarding process. It can be both reactive and proactive. Through building a therapeutic relationship I partner with my clients to assist them with creating positive, long lasting change in their lives. I stress with every client the importance of engaging in self-care and setting healthy boundaries. M.S Johnson and Wales University, Clinical Mental Health Counseling M.Ed.
