Meet Dr. Tonya Davis, PhD

Licensed Counselor in Aurora, IL 60505
Verified by Psychology Today

When life becomes a challenge and the intricacies of relationships weigh you down, I'm here to help. As a dedicated counselor, I work with clients struggling with various concerns—interpersonal, intrapersonal, and those related to the multitude of relationships they experience.

When I think about the human condition, I think about the context of our lived experiences and how that varies from day-to-day. I consider how it can look different for each of us for many reasons. I have been working with clients in various modalities, such as individual, couples, family, group, etc., since 2006. As a career changer, I bring all my professional experiences to maximize our ability to achieve the type of forward movement you desire. Life can be hard enough; you don't have to do it alone. I am humbled to come alongside you in your quest to thrive, not just survive.

Working with Dr. Davis

I draw from various theoretical approaches such as Social Justice Informed, Narrative, Trauma-Focused, Psychodynamic, and CBT. Employing an integrative approach, I combine systems, narrative, and social justice theories to navigate matters of concern across the lifespan. Our lived experiences are shaped by historical and generational contexts, often revealed through cultural, social, and inter/intrapersonal interactions.

Let's Connect!

Counseling Approaches

From the mindfulness and commitment of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to the targeted interventions of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), our goal is to empower you to reshape negative thought patterns, fostering positive changes in behavior. This emotionally focused counseling strengthens relationships, while narrative counseling helps craft your personal story for positive perspectives. In a non-judgmental, person-centered environment, we explore psychodynamic elements and, with Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), achieve rapid goal-oriented changes.

Relationship and Family Counselling

Our relationship and family counseling sessions focus on transforming dynamics and enhancing connections. Our goal is to navigate family and marital challenges with targeted interventions, fostering improved communication and understanding. We aim for you to explore family dynamics as a whole system with Family Systems Counseling, receive support in emotionally focused relationships, and shape your family narrative positively with narrative counseling.
