About Elysia Davis
Ms. Elysia Davis is a prenatal genetic counselor at UNC Chapel-Hill. She has been nominated by several past students as an outstanding supervisor and was a featured Supervisor Spotlight awardee in 2019.
In their supervisor nominations, students have described Elysia as a model supervisor that gets to know each student as a person. She is approachable, ensures that students feel comfortable and supported, offers helpful and balanced feedback, and challenges students in a supportive and encouraging environment. Elysia has been described to help students process emotions and reflect, then brainstorms different approaches with them. One student described how she was able to tailor her delivery to be more sensitive and meet patients where they were because Elysia “believed I could do it and wouldn’t accept me ‘being safe’."
Elysia has also been a valued program supporter, serving as a guest lecturer and on our program's self-study rotations subcommittee during the reaccreditation process. We are honored to recognize Elysia Davis as the UNCG Genetic Counseling Program’s 2020 AGCPD Outstanding Supervisor!
