Do you ever feel unseen, unheard, or like you carried responsibilities no child should have had to? If that resonates, you are not alone. I work with adults and couples who grew up with an emotionally immature parent and still feel the effects on their relationships, self worth, and sense of self. Together we will explore these dynamics and how they shape your life today, and I will help you build the insight, confidence, and self trust to move forward. I also support people through anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, life transitions, and the relationship struggles that come with all of it.

Therapist

Virtual • Colorado


Hi, I’m Devin. I’m happy that you’re here, and I want you to know that reaching out for support is a meaningful first step.

I believe therapy should feel welcoming, collaborative, and human—not like a job interview. My goal is to create a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself, explore your strengths, and begin building greater confidence in your ability to heal, grow, and move forward.

I work with individuals who are navigating several challenges in life such as depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, burnout, relationship or friendship challenges, and low self-esteem. Together, we can identify practical tools and coping skills that support your emotional wellbeing while also making space to understand the deeper experiences that may be contributing to what you are feeling.

Most importantly, I believe you should have a voice in your healing process. You deserve to feel supported, empowered, and more in control of your life. When you are ready, I would be honored to walk alongside you as you begin taking steps toward healing, redemption, and a stronger sense of self.

Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you’ve spent a long time trying to manage everything on your own. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. I believe therapy should be a place where you can be honest about what you’re experiencing while feeling empowered to make meaningful changes at your own pace.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship concerns, stress, and challenges related to substance use and recovery. I also have experience supporting military service members and their families and understand that the experiences that bring someone to therapy are often complex and deeply personal.

My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that you are the expert on your own life. Rather than simply telling you what you should do, I work alongside you to understand where you are, identify what may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical tools that fit your life and your goals.

My specialties include trauma, relationships, supervision, and medical issues. I will help you be more conscious of your thoughts, emotions, and body and thus reach your potential.


My previous education in biology and neuropsychology has provided me with knowledge that is invaluable, especially during trauma work. Because I find both Eastern and Western psychological practices useful, I integrate many tools and therapies into the sessions and tailor treatment to each individual.
