Kayla Davis, LCSW, LICSW

Kayla Davis is a licensed social worker with 14 years of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, trauma, grief, and challenges related to self-esteem and career concerns. She developed her clinical foundation while working with eating disorder populations and expanded her practice to include addictions, cancer survivors and their families, homeless and teen populations, and other mental health concerns across diverse settings. Kayla emphasizes cultural awareness and tailors care to each person's strengths, meeting clients where they are in their recovery and growth.

Her training began with an Associate of Applied Science in Nutrition from the University of New Hampshire, followed by a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Bridgewater State University. She later completed a Master of Social Work at the University of Hawaii Pacific University, where internships deepened her experience with addictions, family systems affected by illness, and serious mental illness. That training included a strong emphasis on cultural competence that continues to inform her day-to-day clinical work.

Kayla integrates evidence-informed methods in her practice, particularly cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing, and incorporates active listening and reflective support to help clients make meaningful decisions. She holds LCSW and LICSW credentials - clinical social work licenses in Hawaii and Massachusetts - and applies a flexible, strengths-based approach when collaborating with clients toward their goals.
