I bring over 20 years of experience in mental health, addiction counseling, public health, and higher education leadership into my work with clients. My approach is grounded in both clinical expertise and lived experience, which allows me to meet you not just as a professional—but as a whole person who understands complexity, transition, and healing on multiple levels.

My work centers on helping individuals reconnect with who they are at their core—beyond survival, expectations, or systems that may have shaped them. I integrate emotional wellness, identity exploration, and purpose-driven growth into our work together.

Whether you are navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, relationship challenges, or questions around identity and purpose, I create a space where you can show up fully and begin the process of realignment and healing.

Psychologist

I'm a licensed psychologist with 19 years of experience providing counseling and guidance for people like you. I'm passionate about helping people know their true identity and worth. I love to help people gain hope and move forward from the painful situations or relationships that have led to them feeling "stuck" and believing lies about themselves.

I have a doctoral degree (PsyD) from Rosemead School of Psychology (2010). In addition to generalized training, I have training in grief, women's issues, adoption and infertility, divorce, and abuse recovery. I have done intensive training in ADHD assessment and treatment across the lifespan, and intensive training in Gottman Method Couples counseling.

We all need a safe place to be known and supported. For over 16 years, I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals navigate trauma and abuse recovery, relationship wounds, and seasons of transition. I’m especially drawn to one-on-one counseling and the opportunity to offer a steady presence as clients make sense of their experiences, deepen self-understanding, and move toward greater healing and connection.

Davis Hoffman

Davis Hoffman

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


I’m an LCSW, and my practice name, Life Shift Happens, comes from a truth I see every single day: people don’t come to therapy because they’re broken. They come because life stopped unfolding the way they expected, and they feel entirely stuck. A lot of the humans I work with are incredibly thoughtful and trying so hard. They usually don't lack insight; they’ve read the coping skills and talked things through with friends. Yet, they still find themselves procrastinating, shutting down, or feeling completely frozen by past stuff. When that happens, change isn’t a matter of forcing more willpower. It requires slowing down to look at the patterns and defense mechanisms we build to protect ourselves when life gets heavy.

My style is collaborative, deeply conversational, and entirely human. I’m not here to judge, lecture, or pretend I have all the answers. Instead, I’m active in our sessions through asking questions, noticing patterns, and gently pushing back when I see you getting in your own way. We will work on the practical things like boundaries, follow-through, and managing emotions, while sitting with the messy overthinking, panic, burnout, or feeling checked out underneath it all. Therapy with me is a relationship where we make sense of the sudden crises and quiet paralyses that come with life shifts. The goal isn’t a perfect, flawless life, but rather a therapeutic space where you can figure out what changed, sprinkle in compassion, and learn how to move forward in a way that feels genuinely your own.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Fayetteville

Searching for postpartum therapists in Fayetteville starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. A pregnancy therapist, prenatal therapist, or therapist for new moms may also list maternal mental health therapy or perinatal mental health as a focus area. As you compare options, look for experience with postpartum and prenatal concerns, and consider whether a therapist lists specialized training such as the perinatal mental health certification, also known as PMH-C.

In a mid-sized city like Fayetteville, your search may include therapists with local offices, virtual appointments, or both. Virtual care can make it easier to find a postpartum therapist who fits your schedule, especially when infant care, physical recovery, or changing routines affect when you can meet. Beyond specialty, compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios can help you see how each therapist describes their approach, communication style, and experience with prenatal and postpartum concerns.

Therapy in Fayetteville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for licensed therapists who focus on postpartum care, review profiles, verify insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. From there, you can compare therapists, choose virtual or in-person care, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
