Caitlin Davis Associate Clinical Social Worker

Caitlin Davis, Associate Clinical Social Worker, 117419 is practicing under the supervision of Suzanne Adams (California, Licensed Psychologist, PSY29244) at Suzanne M. Adams, PhD.

Please, note: A clinician listed as being “clinically supervised” is completing clinical hours toward their licensure. They have one or more fully licensed clinical supervisors that often have special training to become supervisors. They consult with their supervisor(s) on all of their cases, which means that, when working with them, you are getting the time and expertise of multiple therapists in your treatment.

My clients are vibrant, interesting, intelligent, and high-functioning people who sometimes face challenges with overthinking, self-esteem, emotional regulation, maintaining relationships, and self-compassion. People often reach out to me when they’re struggling to navigate a life transition, work or school-related stress, establishing boundaries and/or balance, or are seeking support in shifting patterns that are no longer serving them. I have worked with young adults, millennials, elders, tech professionals, non-profit professionals, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as caregivers and people living with chronic pain. My approach draws from various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness. This allows me to tailor our sessions to your unique needs and preferences. My goal is to create a secure therapeutic relationship where you can freely explore all parts of yourself. In recognition of the importance of accessibility, I offer tele-health therapy sessions. This means you can receive support from the comfort of your own space, making mental health care more accessible and convenient for you. I understand that finding a therapist can be an overwhelming process. I value the time and energy that you are putting into seeking the best support for you and would welcome an opportunity to speak in an initial free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re a fit for working together.

For the last 10 years, I’ve worked in human resources at non-profit, corporate, and global social change organizations helping to foster safe and inclusive work environments and supporting employees in their professional development and beyond. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, I realized the growing need for mental health support amongst employees, as we (myself included!) were struggling to balance the stressors of work, relationships, a changing world, grief, and the myriad of issues each person was carrying, processing, and struggling to cope with during a time of profound uncertainty. It was then that I made the decision to pursue the path of psychotherapy so that I could more holistically and effectively support people through these challenges. I received my clinical training at Fordham University and Jewish Family and Children’s Services. Between my years of experience in human resources and my clinical social work training, I have developed expertise working with work-related stress, burnout, career transitions and/or retirement, stress management, self-esteem, perfectionism, life transitions, young adulting, self-identity development, chronic pain, climate anxiety, grief and loss, and relationships and dating. I have primarily worked with adults and young adults (18 - 24 years old), and also have experience working with elders and the Jewish community.
