Alynne Davis, Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor

I am a therapist specializing in eating issues for women and teens in Charlotte, North Carolina, offering in-person and telehealth services across North Carolina and South Carolina. I work with women and teens who are exhausted by their relationship with food, their bodies and themselves. They’re ready to understand what’s really driving it. I specialize in eating issues, disordered eating, binge eating, emotional eating, body image distress, trauma and attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD) in women. Many of my clients are high-functioning, deeply self-aware and have already tried behavioral approaches. What they haven’t had is a space to explore the why: the emotional history, nervous system patterns and unmet needs that food or body shame have been quietly trying to fill. My approach is trauma-informed and integrative. I combine posttraumatic stress (PTSD) therapy with expressive arts therapy (writing, visual art, imagery and movement), somatic body-based work, Internal Family Systems and cognitive behavioral therapy. Healing rarely happens through insight alone. Sometimes the body needs to be part of the conversation. I accept Aetna and private pay only. A free 15-minute consultation is available: no forms, no pressure, just a conversation.

My practice is a space for women and teens who are ready to go deeper than symptom management. I don't work from a one-size-fits-all model — every client brings a different history, nervous system, and set of needs, and I tailor our work accordingly. Sessions are available in-person at my Charlotte, NC office and via telehealth throughout North Carolina and South Carolina. I offer a free 15-minute phone or video consultation before your first appointment — no commitment required. I have a particular passion for working with women who have been dismissed, misdiagnosed, or told they "don't look like" they have a problem. You don't have to be at rock bottom to deserve support — and you don't have to have a diagnosis to begin healing.
