Transform Your Life with Jannee D. Davis: Empowerment for All

Hey there, I'm Jannee D. Davis, and I'm thrilled to connect with you! I'm a true Jersey City native, and let me tell you, holistic wellness is my jam! Currently, I'm rocking it as a Licensed Masters Social Worker in New York State, with over five years of experience in the non-profit sector as a forensic clinician and social worker.

My educational journey took me to Centenary University, where I earned my B.A. in Social Work. Then, I leveled up and obtained my M.S. in Social Work from the prestigious Columbia University in the City of N.Y. It was an amazing ride that prepared me to work with diverse populations, including younger and older adults from various walks of life. Whether they've had encounters with the justice system or not, and regardless of their sexual identities, I've been there to support them in improving their lives and building those daily habits that put mental health and overall well-being first.

Now, let me share something personal with you. I understand firsthand the impact of not having access to mental health services as an African American woman raised by a strong single black mother in this country. I've gone through my own journey of healing after years of suffering in silence, but I've emerged stronger and more determined than ever. That's why I'm incredibly passionate about liberating other BIPOC individuals by challenging the status quo of mental health services. I want to empower you to embrace your authentic self, become a compassionate leader in your community, and make self-care and holistic wellness non-negotiable parts of your daily life.

So, let's embark on this incredible journey together. I'm here to listen, to understand the challenges you're facing, and to provide effective methods that bring hope and solutions. Let's embark on this transformative journey together, breaking barriers and embracing a life of authenticity and well-being.
