Chey Davis , LMSW

Chey Davis is a licensed master social worker (LMSW) in Michigan with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, and concerns related to intimacy and LGBTQ issues. Her work also includes supporting people through life changes and addressing women's issues.

Chey aims to build an open, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what matters to them. She listens for what feels most urgent and helps clients decide on small, practical steps they can try between sessions. Sessions are conversational and grounded in real-life needs rather than clinical jargon.

Her background includes hands-on practice with attachment concerns, sexuality, and a range of relationship styles such as polyamory and kink. She brings that experience into sessions when it helps clients make sense of their feelings and patterns. Chey also addresses workplace stress, experiences of prejudice, and multicultural concerns.

People who come for gender-related questions, including gender dysphoria, or for issues around sexual expression will find a direct, nonjudgmental approach. She helps clients untangle expectations and build more self-acceptance and self-love where that is a goal.

Therapy with Chey is collaborative. She works with each client to set clear goals and to check progress along the way. That makes the work feel focused and relevant to everyday life.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Chey uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach helps people identify patterns in their relationships and attachment - it looks at how early connections shape current reactions and guides clients toward new ways of relating. Another approach centers on managing anxiety and stress through straightforward coping skills and behavioral experiments that can be practiced between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Chey will discuss options and tailor methods to the client’s goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. That collaboration helps ensure the plan fits what the person actually needs and can realistically try outside sessions.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to send quick updates, process thoughts in writing, or check in between scheduled meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity when travel or work demands change.
