Testimonials

My wife and I were going through an extremely rough patch. Davida was able to help us through it. I didn’t just want to talk about our pasts and she understood that. I really appreciated her suggestions of things we could actually do. She was fair and direct with both of us. We both felt understood, even though we’re coming from different perspectives. So, we were able to develop more compassion for each other and come together rather than be stuck in our positions and conflict.

— S.B. & M.W.

She’s bright, insightful and her feedback is appropriate and useful. When others are struggling she’s open and supportive. Davida has a very grounded calmness that is quite reassuring allowing clients to quickly connect and express their vulnerabilities to her.

As co-faculty members at the Pacific Center for Human Growth, I’ve developed great respect for Davida’s clinical thinking and professional insights.
