Trina Davis, LCSW

I have a lot of thoughts about my experience but I only want to write this out of kindness to those seeking therapy. I have tried multiple therapists and this is the first one I actually felt worse after talking to. I felt continuously invalidated and dismissed. I walked away doubting my own trauma. Rarely was eye contact even made and it seemed as if she was texting throughout our session. I felt like this therapist was absent and had dismissive body language and responses. The questions asked demonstrated the lack of attention paid and the unwillingness to truly understand or listen. Aside from the condescending demeanor and out of pocket remarks, no good advice was given. Please try someone else.

I used my EAP to receive services from Trina. She is direct, honest, and holds space. Trina reiterated to me that my session are mine and what I make it. I was the captain and she is the navigator.

My experience with Trina was amazing. She is very thorough. After reviewing some of these negative comments, I realized that these people may had the wrong clinician. She creates a treatment plan with you on the first day, she makes you accountable, and follow up with you.

Had I read these reviews before, I would not have scheduled with this therapist. Ms. Davis was late to both of my appointments that I had with her. For one of them, she was audibly eating chips and driving for most of the session. Normally, I would not mind more casual behavior in a therapist I had been seeing for a while, but this was my first appointment with her, so it felt extremely disrespectful. Throughout my second appointment it seemed like Ms. Davis was more interested in dissecting the language I used to describe my experiences to 'call me out' on inconsistencies instead of listening to the complete situation and understanding it from my perspective. It did not feel like she was listening to my story with an open mind to help me understand my feelings on what had happened, but that she was casting judgement on my actions and behavior in situations that she did not fully understand. I left this appointment feeling invalidated, unheard, and confused.

I wish I had listened to all the negative reviews I read. I came out of the session feeling worse than before. I felt like she was arguing with me when I tried to explain my emotions. And half the time she was cold and I had to keep asking “hello are you there?”

I decided to make use of TimelyCare through my company and selected Trina for what I expected was her expertise and availability. I have never, in all my years of counseling as a client and as a therapist, experienced such an invalidating and close-minded therapist, lacking any level of attunement or tact in her responses to my concerns. At the beginning of our session, I expressed my wish for ongoing support through a major life change. She asked questions from a place of judgment or questions completely unrelated to the situation I was explaining to her. I fear that those new to being counseled have no idea how unprofessional and poor her care is. She did not deserve to be told any part of my story as she did not hold any of it with care. I say all this, hoping this is a wake up call for her. She’s in such a position of honor and to steward it so poorly is a terrible reflection on the profession.

if I would’ve done my research and read previous reviews I would have not scheduled with ms.davis . The therapist seems uninterested to say the least , hard to have a conversation with . I would not recommend to someone who has serious issues going on . Actually frustrating . I would not use my insurance or pay out of pocket for her services .

Ms. Davis lacked a coherent approach and failed to use any professional modalities in helping me. There was no treatment plan or follow up discussion with the homework she assigns. Her tone was flat, cold, and dismissive. If you are well-read or a spiritual person, be warned Ms. Davis lacks serious introspection and will not be able to maintain a thoughtful conversation. Do yourself a favor and please find someone else to help you through your problems.

I had 3 or 4 telehealth appointments with her. She was always a bit cold and distant, and never seemed particularly interested in my growth. She would often cut appointments short without asking me if I wanted to discuss anything else, and was also difficult to reach when scheduling appointments. She did give me some good advice, but overall I think she did the bare minimum of what a therapist should do.

I had a great experience with Ms. Davis. She informed me of what to expect and often encouraged me. The person who left the bad review seems personal because Ms. Davis has very strong boundaries.

She was understanding and helpful when I needed assistance addressing my barriers. The scheduling and meeting happened without any issues. She had a polite and caring attitude and did not seem to judge me when I discussed my barriers with her. I would recommend her to my friends in need of services related to my own.

She was very helpful and answered her phone when I called. I was able to get an appointment that was convenient. She made it comfortable to talk with. She knew about places in the city that I could utilize if I needed to that helped. Overall I was pleased with the first experience of this kind with a social worker.

She was very patient & courteous. She helped me with my needs regarding my mental health. She ended each session very upbeat especially if the session was filled with sadness. I would recommend.

She was hospitable and warm when she answered her phone. I got a reminder phone call the day before my first session. At my first session, I felt she was concerned about my well being and she made me feel comfortable to tell my life story. I look forward to my next session.

Trina was very helpful to my family. She often challenges you to think through your own situations. She has been available evening, weekends and holidays.

Terrible. Very rude and clearly more interested in her own personal affairs over the issues of her clients. Does the most minimal assistance if any at all for clients and expects the client to find the information they need rather than assist in finding or providing. Was often missing for scheduled meetings with no cancelation or rescheduling set. She should not be working in the field of human services, do your best to find another worker or employee if thinking of hiring her.
