Dr. Davey joined the faculty at Drexel University's Graduate programs in Couple and Family Therapy in the fall of 2006. She has been teaching, providing clinical supervision, and conducting research in accredited MFT programs since 1998, and additionally worked for two years as a clinical director of children's outpatient programs at a community mental health agency.
Dr. Davey's program of research primarily focuses on the development of culturally sensitive family-based interventions for historically under-served populations. She currently studies families in which a parent and/or school-age child is coping with a physical illness (e.g., breast cancer in a parent or HIV/AIDS in school-age children). Dr. Davey is collaborating with breast surgeons and also with a physician who is treating adolescent and school-age children coping with HIV/AIDS, to develop evidenced based medical family therapy practices for ethnic minority families.
Her areas of specialization include Medical Family Therapy, Couple and Family Therapy Theory, Research Methods, Couple and Sex Therapy, Clinical Supervision, Adolescent and Ethnic Identity Development, Systemic change and Second Order Change, and Evidenced Based Practices.
Dr. Davey’s clinical certifications and memberships are Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Clinical Member; American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, Approved Supervisor; American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, Clinical Member; and Collaborative Family Health Care Association, Clinical Member.
