Ashley Davis, M.S.W.

Ashley Davis earned an M.S.W. at Simmons in 2001 and completed a post-master’s fellowship in the treatment of couples and families at Cambridge Hospital, where she works as a staff social worker and supervisor. She also provides clinical services to psychiatric inpatients and their families on a per-diem basis at McLean Hospital in Belmont, which had been her second-year field placement. She currently treats a diverse client population in her private practice in Arlington. In 2003 she received a Stevens Traveling Fellowship from Wellesley College, which funded trips to Mexico, Sweden, and China to study their respective mental-health services. In 2004 she returned to Simmons as a doctoral student and is now in the dissertating phase of the program. Her research focuses on clinicians’ perceived levels of cultural competence and experiences in social work education. She is a member of the NASW and has had an honorary adjunct faculty appointment to the Smith School of Social Work since 2004.
