Transforming Lives, Systems, and Spaces—With Care That Cuts Deep.

Therapy. Supervision. Strategy.
Delivered with heart, rooted in truth, and built for change.

Rooted in Care. Driven by Change. Grounded in Justice.

At Davis Counseling & Consulting, PLLC, we don’t just check boxes—we build bold, healing-centered pathways forward. Founded by Dr. Lesli Davis, LCSW, LCAS, CSI, our practice bridges clinical care, supervision, and systems transformation with one mission: to center people and shift power.

With over 20 years of experience across mental health, substance use, forensic social work, and human services, Dr. Davis brings deep clinical insight and operational leadership to every space she serves. Her work spans direct care, case management, program development, reentry initiatives, and executive-level oversight—grounded in cultural humility and strategic clarity.

Whether supporting individuals through therapy, mentoring new clinicians, or helping organizations reimagine how they show up—her approach is trauma-informed, equity-rooted, and unapologetically people-first.

We believe healing is justice. Leadership is liberation. And when done with intention, the work can transform more than systems—it can transform lives.
