Licensed Therapist
Founder of McDavid Creative Therapy
Being a therapist is more than a job for me. it's a calling. As a young adult, my own mental health struggles revealed the healing and transformative power of therapy.
My challenges led to profound personal growth. They instilled in me the utmost respect and empathy for those facing mental health hurdles. The possibility of working with others in such a meaningful way inspired and motivated me.
This passion drove me to complete my graduate education and training at Columbia University. With over a decade of experience in mental health, I am grateful to be able to support others on their journey toward a better life.
The philosophy of Kintsugi is at the heart of my practice--seeing life's challenges as cracks that let in the light that illuminates our true self.

Mission Statement
At McDavid Creative Therapy, our mission is to deliver a personalized therapy experience that empowers individuals to integrate therapy into their lives in a way that feels right for them. We believe in the capacity of every individual to uncover and harness their own resilience and growth.
We stand committed to redefining therapy, making it accessible, flexible, and effective through virtual sessions that allow for freedom, movement, and connection to the natural world. Our approach is grounded in science, backed by decades of clinical experience, and driven by a dedication to client and clinician well-being.
For our clients, McDavid Creative Therapy represents a shift towards a more fulfilling, empowered, and balanced life. For our clinicians, it offers a supportive, growth-oriented career in mental health care that respects their need for work-life harmony, professional development, and ethical practice.
Together, we're changing the narrative around mental health care, championing a holistic approach that prioritizes well-being, personal growth, and the belief that everyone deserves to lead a life filled with joy, resilience, and purpose.
Kintsugi is the ancient Japanese art of repair, where shattered pottery is tenderly transformed into masterpieces, each fracture narrating a tale of resilience, redemption, and the intentional pursuit of beauty.
As the pieces are meticulously reassembled with precious metals, a gentle whisper echoes—an assurance that brokenness is not the end; rather, it's an opportunity to consciously and intentionally craft an even more beautiful life.
With compassion and understanding as our compass, we pick up the pieces in therapy. It becomes a sacred space where our fractured selves are tenderly nurtured, and our scars, far from symbols of defeat, evolve into golden emblems of strength and resilience.
Just like the Kintsugi bowl, our breaks are the beginning, not the end. They can lead to something better. Through compassion and understanding, we start the journey of putting ourselves back together.
Our scars, made golden through love and care, can be proudly displayed as signs of our growth and resilience.
In every crack, there's a story.
In every break, a chance for
beauty and growth.
