She enjoys supporting folks with anxiety, depression, sexual concerns, spirituality, and life changes. Jen loves collaborating with people from all cultural backgrounds and is curious to understand and empower your unique experience.

Keri Downs, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
As a licensed clinical psychologist with over 15 years of experience, I, Dr. Keri Downs, specialize in child and adolescent therapy. My extensive experience spans various emotional, behavioral, and social challenges faced by children, adolescents, and young adults, including sadness, behavioral problems, ADHD, giftedness, social difficulties, and trauma. I am dedicated to providing compassionate and evidence-based therapy to help my clients navigate these challenges and achieve personal growth.
I hold degrees from Dartmouth College and Roosevelt University, and my therapeutic approach is rooted in strengths-based, relationship-based, and cognitive-behavioral theories. I strive to understand how my patients’ environments and experiences shape their self-perception, relationships, and worldview. Believing in the power of the therapeutic relationship, I use it as a tool to help patients gain deeper awareness and insight into their emotions, behaviors, and relationship patterns.
At Davenport Psychology, I take pride in my ability to see the big picture and utilize creative, innovative interventions to help children and families reach their greatest potential. I offer individual and group therapy, parent support, and comprehensive psychological evaluations. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their feelings, develop coping strategies, and achieve lasting change.

Anna DiNoto
Psychologist, PsyD, LMHC, PSYPACT - Licensed Psychologist
While many view mental health assessment and treatment as a way to identify a diagnosis someone else (i.e., a psychologist) assigns, we view it as an engaging and empowering process. A diagnosis may be met, and if this is true our hope is you will have words to understand who you are, how your brain (and body) sees and interacts with the world, and what you could potentially do about it based on honoring your input.
