Davis Harte

J. Davis Harte, PhD, is a researcher, educator, author, and lifelong observer of the relationships between people, environments, and wellbeing. Her work explores how the spaces people inhabit can support safety, agency, connection, regulation, and flourishing. Davis is an Education Director and faculty member in Design for Human Health at the Boston Architectural College and co-founder of the Trauma-informed Design Society. She is also co-author of Trauma-informed Design: A Framework for Designers, Architects, and Other Practitioners. Her offerings on Insight Timer extend that curiosity into quieter territory—guided practices, reflections, and experimental readings that create space to notice, listen, regulate, and reconnect. Her approach draws from research and contemplative practice while remaining grounded in the ordinary sensory experiences of being human.
