new beginnings
The journey begins by exploring and acknowledging the genuine challenges you
may be facing—without relying on a diagnosis to define you.
I'll help you recognize how your struggles often arise from past experiences rather
than any inherent flaws you have as an individual.

your origin story
Your past has shaped you, but it doesn’t have to define you. We’ll delve into your journey through a lens of self-compassion, recognizing the strength that it took
to get to where you are today.
You’ll begin to see your challenges as essential chapters in your story that reveal
your potential for resilience and growth.

the reframe
There are no 'bad' feelings. Every emotion serves a purpose, aiming to
protect or inform us in some way.
By reframing so-called negative emotions as allies, rather than enemies,
we learn to welcome them with curiosity rather than resistance.

transformational growth
Your therapeutic journey goes beyond overcoming challenges—it leads to a
more meaningful and authentic life grounded in self-love and aligned
with your core values.
As a result of this process, you’ll gain a deeper connection to yourself, a stronger sense of purpose, and a greater capacity for joy and fulfillment.
how it works
transformation
Let go of narratives that no longer serve you. When self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and fear of judgment hold you back, I can help you shed the layers of who you’ve been told to be so you can become the most authentic version of yourself.
I'll guide you along a journey of transformation grounded in self-compassion and empowerment and driven by the belief that you are already enough.
(re)connection
I believe in the healing power of connection and I understand that disconnect happens when we’re overwhelmed by adversity.
I'll walk you through the process of reconnecting to your emotions, your body, nature, and your authentic self to deliver the results you came for.
freedom
Leverage the scientifically proven mental health benefits of movement and nature by embracing the freedom to decide how and where your sessions unfold — whether walking in a park or overlooking the ocean.
Creativity isn’t about what you produce or how well you perform. It’s about freedom, thinking outside the box, trying new things, and going against the grain.

This process fosters a stronger connection to yourself, making it possible to find joy even in difficult moments. Through these steps, you'll not only confront your challenges but also rediscover your strength and
capacity for happiness.

Why Join Us?
We’re not just hiring clinicians—we aim to nurture future leaders in mental health care. We know that early-career clinicians often face exploitative dynamics when working in large, impersonal mental health organizations. These environments contribute to burnout, leading many to leave the field prematurely. Having navigated these settings ourselves, we founded McDavid Creative Therapy to offer an alternative—a place where personal and professional growth are as important as the client care you provide.
At McDavid Creative Therapy, you’ll be part of a dedicated team making a difference across New York State while building a sustainable and fulfilling mental health career. Join us in creating a future where mental health care is compassionate, accessible, and supportive for both clients and clinicians. Let's make a difference together.
