Hi, I’m Dr. Allie Davis!
Welcome to The Mother Tree, a space where motherhood, mental health, and ecological awareness intertwine to inspire healing and transformation.
As a licensed counselor, researcher, and co-developer of maternal ecopsychology, my work is rooted in understanding how motherhood reshapes our connection to ourselves, our communities, and the Earth. Through my journey as a mother of two and my professional practice, I’ve come to see motherhood as a profound process of growth, one deeply connected to the rhythms of nature.
With a background in maternal mental health and a passion for ecological consciousness, I guide mothers and professionals on paths of resilience, healing, and balance. Whether through one-on-one mentoring, my ReStorying Ecodistress support circles for caregivers, or the Maternal Ecopsychology Certificate®, my goal is to nurture transformation and connection.
About The Mother Tree
The Mother Tree is inspired by the concept of matrescence—the developmental process of becoming a mother. My own experience of matrescence was shaped by both challenges and reorientation. While my first journey through motherhood was disorienting, the arrival of my second daughter taught me how to align myself with a path that felt authentically mine.
From this personal growth and the support of my mentor Aurelie Athan, The Mother Tree and the concept of maternal ecopsychology was born. This is a space dedicated to supporting the unique journeys of mothers through the lens of the developing field of maternal ecopsychology. Here, you’ll find reflections, practical tools, and insights that connect the inner work of mothering to the larger ecological systems we inhabit.
I also address the concept of maternal ecodistress—the anxiety, grief, and pre-traumatic stress mothers may feel about environmental issues. This experience inspired me to co-develop maternal ecopsychology, a nature-centered approach to maternal mental health. The Mother Tree is a space to explore these connections, offering ways to nurture your growth and reconnect with the world around you.
