Testimonials

Kia is a talented and sharp therapist. I had the pleasure of working with her as a clinical consultant. She was always ready to take on a new perspective and her dedication to achieving positive therapeutic outcomes was evident in each consultation session she booked with me. Among her qualities and talents are her ability to critically evaluate environmental stressors and familial patterns impacting her clients, her use of clinical intuition, and her unending compassion. I highly recommend Kia for those who are ready to begin their healing path.

-Priscilla Norris at Thrivemind Counseling

Dakia Davis is a skilled clinician, who both validates and challenges her clients well. She will be both kind, and direct with you. She stays up to date with best practices, and incorporates them into her sessions in a way that is approachable.

-Molly B.

Kia developed an outstanding presentation on racial trauma for our People of Color Caucus. In addition to the main slideshow, she provided notes and talking points for the facilitator, references, and a list of supportive resources. She even made herself available to connect members to care if needed. The energy and knowledge she brings to her work are impressive!

- G.D., Anti-Racism Advocate

Kia’s passion for supporting people navigating difficult systems and traumatic experiences - in particular survivors of sexual violence - was reflected in those conversations and the full attention she gave to every visitor.

- S.S., DoD Safe Helpline Colleague

Oftentimes it is not just the patient Ms. Davis is providing therapeutic support for, but also their loved ones, and even the medical staff. Her commitment to ensuring each patient receives patient-centered, trauma-informed care exceeds that of other clinicians I have worked with in the past.

- M.S. Community Violence Intervention Program Manager

We were excited to have Dakia speak to our high school students on the 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens. Dakia's presentation on mental health was engaging and informational. She was very knowledgeable about the content and in tune with her (young) audience members. Grateful to have had someone with her level of expertise at our event and look forward to inviting her back.
