Getting to know Alison Davies

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing psychotherapy to residents of California and Oregon via telehealth (video or phone). I work with individuals, couples, and families of all ages to address mental health, personal and professional development, and life satisfaction. I have specialized training in treating infants, children, adolescents, and their parents, which informs my work at every life stage. My expertise is in contemporary psychoanalytic psychotherapy, also known as psychodynamic or ?talk therapy.? By exploring your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors carefully over time, we deepen your understanding of yourself and your experiences to get to the root of your concerns. Our therapeutic relationship also provides space to develop new skills in relating to yourself and the world. This approach can generate long-lasting change beyond our work together. In addition to my private practice, I am a therapist and clinical supervisor at Silver Lake Psychotherapy in Los Feliz, Los Angeles, and coordinate the low-fee psychoanalysis clinic and referral service at the New Center for Psychoanalysis. I have provided therapy in community mental health clinics and public schools in Watts, Los Angeles, and Culver City, with experience in child welfare systems, adoptions and guardianship court, and hospice care. Before becoming a psychotherapist, I taught elementary school and worked in human resources recruitment for educational organizations. I have significant life experience in both California and Oregon. I hold a Master's in Clinical Social Work from Smith College and a Bachelor's from Williams College. I completed a Fellowship in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy at Reiss-Davis Graduate School - Los Angeles PsyD Campus and earned a certificate from the Los Angeles Institute and Society for Psychoanalytic Studies.
