Davis Hoffman, BHC

Davis was raised in a family of seven in Nashville, Tennessee, amongst rolling hills and open meadows for most of his life. In his young adult life, Davis left his southern roots when he volunteered in an orphanage in Haiti for two summers working as a construction manager and care coordinator which materialized his affection for working with children with complex backgrounds. In 2013, Davis attended University of Tennessee in an accelerated program to receive an undergraduate and Master’s degree in social work. During his undergraduate field practicum, Davis interned as a social worker for a school health center in the Appalachian mountains for two years and for his graduate practice, Davis worked as a school counselor for a charter school in his hometown. In his collegiate summers and graduate year, Davis spent time working with youth in an array of areas from gymnastics coach; mentor for children with special needs; advocate for orphaned children; and social worker in an interprofessional medical team. After graduating in 2018, Davis spent over two years teaching English in Thailand which integrated his desire to educate, empower, and equip teens and young adults to the best of his ability. Davis attributes many of his successes and eclectic experiences to his supportive family and strong mentors that offer professionalism, guidance, and constructive feedback. Davis adheres to the belief that all humans are acting in their most rational self based on their unique upbringing, worldview, perspective, history, etc., and that everyone has the potential to thrive. Davis strives to learn something from everyone he meets and offers presence, ease, and a listening ear. In his free time, Davis can be found playing outside in various ways including practicing yoga, floating on paddle boards, riding his bicycle, listening to music or podcasts, reading a new book in a cafe, hiking, rock climbing, and camping in Durango’s surrounding beauty.
