Professional statement

Davi works with transgender and nonbinary adults and adolescents who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck. Many clients come in carrying anxiety, relational pain, or a sense of not belonging, and are looking for a space where they don’t have to explain or justify who they are. Davi frequently supports neurodivergent and highly sensitive people who want therapy that feels affirming and attuned.

Davi’s approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in real life. Therapy is a shared process focused on understanding emotional patterns, inner conflicts, and nervous system responses, while also building practical tools clients can use outside of sessions. Davi believes in meeting you wherever you're at and helping clients move toward change without pressure or overwhelm.

As a California-licensed therapist, Davi brings specialized training and ongoing professional involvement in gender-affirming care for transgender and nonbinary people. Their work is non-pathologizing, culturally responsive, and informed by current research, consultation, and continuing education.

Davi is based in San Francisco and offers both in-person therapy and telehealth sessions for clients throughout California. Availability may vary, and prospective clients are welcome to reach out to explore fit and scheduling.


Message to clients

As a member of the transgender community myself, my hope is that our work offers you a space where you don’t have to explain or defend who you are, and where your experiences are met with curiosity, respect, and care. My hope is to offer a space where you can show up as your authentic self without needing to mask any part of you.

My approach is collaborative and I regularly check in about pace, goals, and what feels most supportive. Therapy with me is both reflective and practical, and we’ll focus on helping you feel more grounded in yourself and more connected in your relationships. My approach is trauma-informed and I value consent, transparency, and nervous system safety. I welcome feedback throughout the process so we can shape the work in a way that truly supports you.

I know that finding the right therapist is important. If you’re feeling uncertain, overwhelmed, or simply curious about what therapy could offer you right now, I encourage you to reach out. My hope is that therapy feels like a place where you can breathe a little easier, feel more at home in yourself, and move toward a life that feels more aligned and sustainable.
