Therapy in Kansas City, MO with
Authenticity. Acceptance. Alignment.
An Announcement from Liz Davis Therapy.
Hey There! This is Liz. I am honored that so many new clients have chosen to work with me over the last several months! But with that comes some hard choices. Unfortunately, for the sake of scheduling and making sure all of my clients are able to get in for appointments when they want/need to, I have to no longer accept new clients at this time.
This is a hard choice for me to make, but I value high-quality client care and want to make sure I have the availability that a new client would need!
That said, if this website resonates with you, and you believe we may be a good fit to work together, feel free to email me at liz@mossandmainkc.com to be added to my waitlist! I anticipate and hope that I will be able to add new clients again in May 2024. I have tried to make this website completely and authentically representative of me as a person and a clinician, and I believe it accurately depicts the services that I provide and my style of therapy, so feel free to explore to determine fit and reach out if you want to be on the waitlist!
As noted on the Sliding Scale Therapy page at the top of the site, my Graduate Student Intern will begin accepting new clients (individuals, couples, families) at the end of April for those of you looking to begin more affordable therapy sooner and are interested in working with Liz Davis Therapy. Feel free to explore that page to learn more and be added to his waitlist if you choose! The page will be updated with his information, photo, and bio soon at the end of March!
Again, thank you so much for visiting the Liz Davis Therapy website, and if you think we may be a good fit, I am happy to add you to my waitlist and I look forward to meeting you as soon as possible!
Warmly and Humbly,
Liz
Invest in Your Relationship with Yourself
I know what it’s like to feel alone with your problems. Maybe you have no one to talk to. Or maybe you feel bad making your friends, your family, or your partner listen to your problems again. I know what that feels like, and I’m here.
I’m Ready to Listen
It’s time to let go of anxiety, sadness, frustration, anger, and shame. I want to process these things with you. You don’t have to go through this alone anymore. Mental health issues manifest in so many different ways: Spending days in bed and hating yourself for it? Anxious thoughts keeping you awake at night, or sadness keeping you from focusing at work or school? Are family members driving you nuts? Getting everything done but feeling like you’re walking on thin ice and about to fall through? Or maybe you feel nothing at all - just empty. Life is hard. Getting through each day is hard.
Let’s Talk About It
I’m here to be a friend - a friend that can help. In my room, there’s no judgment. Just a safe space to finally let it all out. Let me help you take control of your life and make it yours.
Don’t Worry - I’ve Got a Plan
Steps to Healing
1
Understand Your Past
I want to know where you come from. Let’s talk about your family, your past, and your present. Let’s figure out what makes you, you.
2
Accept Your Present
It’s time to really get to know yourself in a deeper way. Only then can you fully accept who you are now. Let’s process what you’re going through.
3
Manifest Your Future
Explore your values & what you want out of your life. Together, we can make it happen. By understanding our past & present, we can build our future.
Come chat with me!
Let’s unpack all the things.
Liz Davis is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Kansas City, MO.
“I’ve been seeing Liz for like almost four years now. She’s literally the best therapist. I’ve referred my best friend to her, two of my colleagues, and my mom. They all love her. I asked her if I could write this review so that others know what an amazing job she really does.”
I’m Liz and I Like to Listen.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in both Missouri and Kansas. I also provide coaching services to out-of-state clients in the United States. I specialize in working with individuals and couples. I’ve been a listener and a helper for as long as I can remember. I could tell you about all of my credentials, but I’d rather just tell you about myself because I believe the therapist/client relationship requires a good fit, and I want you to know who I am. I am an open-minded, free-spirited, accepting, vulnerable, non-judgmental, and authentic human being. Get to know more about me as a person and how I work by scrolling down to the bottom of this page! I believe we all need, and crave, a person to really see, hear, and understand us.
I Would Love To Be Your Person.
I’m here if you’re ready to explore your past and figure out what makes you you, or if you want to dissect the present and figure out how to improve your current circumstances. I’m also here to be a sounding board if you just need someone to talk to.
I Want To Listen To You. I Can Help.
I know finding a therapist is a pain, so if we’re not a good fit, I want to help you find someone who is. If we’re not a perfect match, let me know in our first session, and I will be happy to provide you with quality referrals. If we are a great fit, I cannot wait to get to know you! Let’s do this together.

Get to Know Liz Davis, M.S., LMFT in Kansas City, MO.
Hey, I’m Liz. My pronouns are she/her. I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Kansas and Missouri, practicing out of Kansas City, MO. Read below to get to know me!
The Person. I’m a bit of a nerd. I love reading and going down internet rabbit holes on all things psychology, neuroscience, anything science, self-help, spirituality, and wellness. I have a creative and artistic spirit, but I can’t draw or paint worth a damn. Instead, I enjoy decorating my aesthetic spaces and getting dressed in the morning. I love listening to podcasts, especially in the healing and wellness realm. I am currently obsessed with neuroscience and Polyvagal Theory. I am passionate about processing trauma, healing from depression and chronic anxiety, LBGTQIA+ issues, and processing family issues and dynamics. I am a sex-positive clinician and enjoy working with clients from all walks of life. Learn more about my cultural identity as a first-generation Black and Native American person here.
The Clinician. I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of Missouri and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of Kansas. I received my Master’s degree from Friends University in Kansas City where I was an executive member of the Delta Kappa honor society and a winner of the Sheldon Louthan Award for Outstanding Graduate Student in Family Therapy. Learn more about me as a clinician through this Canvas Rebel online magazine article here!
The Approach. My therapeutic approach is pretty eclectic, as I pull intuitively from a number of different theories and modalities. Overall, I emphasize understanding and processing family issues, attachment theory, self-esteem and self-compassion work, values exploration, emotional processing, and just basically getting to know yourself on a deeper and more intimate level so that you can build a more loving and accepting relationship with yourself and manifest a life that is in line with your Authentic Self. Additionally, I care about relationships. I believe that relationships are what make our lives worth living. Whether those relationships are with yourself, friends, family, co-workers, partners, employers, or anyone else, I want to help you improve the relationships in your life. I love helping couples understand one another and communicate better, and guide them as they move through the various stages of intimate relationships. They say relationships take work, and I want to do that work with you. Feel free to explore my blog to get an insight into how I think, feel, and work!
