Work with Caitlin Davis, ASW

Hi, I’m Caitlin. I’m an Associate Clinical Social Worker based in San Francisco.

I am providing individual therapy in the private practice of and supervised by Suzanne M. Adams, PhD (PSY29244).

I’ve outlined my background and approach below in both bullet-points and long-form versions, so please feel free to choose your own adventure depending on which format works best for you and how you best process information!

My Clinical Approach, Techniques & Training

My approach places my clients’ rights, goals, and needs at the center of our work. I believe my clients are the experts on their own life. My role is to walk beside you to offer support in your growth and achieving your goals. As such, my approach is strengths-based, collaborative, supportive, non-judgmental, culturally responsive, and LGBTQ+ affirming. I am an eclectic therapist, which means I draw from multiple modalities and approaches to cater to each clients’ individual needs. I have training and expertise in Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and also draw from Mindfulness and Gestalt techniques and practices.

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.   

My Background

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.

Free Consultation

I recognize that finding a therapist, whether for the first time or returning to therapy, can be a daunting and 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 are a fit for working together to achieve your therapeutic goals. 

Fees

Individual Therapy: $160 for 50-minute sessions.

I offer the possibility of a sliding scale agreement, available on a limited basis and based on financial difficulty.
