About Me

Hello, I’m Davis (he/him) RSW, MSW, BSW, PMCertMFT

I supports individuals, couples, and families navigating life’s challenges, relationships, and personal growth.

My approach is systemic, trauma-informed, attachment-informed, and culturally attuned. I strive to create a space that is queer-friendly, neurodiversity-affirming, sex-positive, and anti-diet culture.

My Therapy Style

Clients often describe my style as direct, transparent, warm, & relational. When we work together, you can expect a non-judgmental space where we explore how your relationships, family dynamics, culture, and social environment shape your experiences. We’ll identify practical strategies that you can use in everyday life to navigate difficult situations, communicate more effectively, and build healthier connections. Between sessions, I may invite you to try small activities. I prefer not to call them “homework.” These might include journaling prompts, exercises, readings, worksheets, or short videos. These are always optional invitations, and you have full choice in what you engage with.

What Clients Often Say

People I work with often describe me as warm, calm, and direct. I’ve even been told that “nothing can surprise me.” Apparently my shock threshold is quite high. Clients appreciate that I stay steady through big emotions, help them talk about things they once worried might be “too much,” and offer honest reflections without judgment. And when it feels right, I also enjoy bringing a bit of humour into the room because sometimes a well-timed laugh can make difficult conversations feel just a little lighter.

Background

I have been practicing as a social worker and therapist since 2018. My education includes Master’s Degree in Social Work from University of British Columbia. I have also completed a 2-year Post-Master’s Certificate in Couple & Family Therapy from University of Calgary. I have worked across a range of settings in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Vancouver including high schools, family protective services, hospitals, and community family centres. In hospital settings, I supported patients and families in organ transplant programme, psychiatric, and emergency departments, providing therapy to individuals and families during complex and often high-stress situations.

Before joining Aetheris, I worked as a Senior Couples & Sex Therapist in a specialised sex therapy service, supporting clients with relationship challenges, intimacy concerns, and sexual wellbeing. In addition to clinical practice, I also provide clinical supervision to students and clinicians.

Outside of therapy, you’ll find me rewatching Modern Family or enjoying sushi.
