When you work with me, my goal is for you to feel heard, respected, and comfortable being yourself. I don’t believe you need to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. Sometimes you just need someone who will listen, help you make sense of what you’re experiencing, and work with you to find a way forward.

I take a supportive and down-to-earth approach to therapy. We’ll talk about what’s happening in your life, but we’ll also look at the experiences, thoughts, emotions, and relationships that may be affecting how you feel today. I’ll meet you where you are and work at a pace that feels manageable for you.

You can expect me to be honest, respectful, and collaborative. I won’t judge you or tell you how you’re supposed to feel. Instead, I’ll help you better understand yourself, build practical coping skills, work through difficult experiences, and recognize the strengths you already have.

Whether you’re dealing with stress, relationships, emotional challenges, changes in your life, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can be a place to slow down and focus on you. My hope is that you leave therapy not only feeling understood, but also feeling more confident in yourself and better prepared to handle what comes next.

Sometimes you know you need support, but you may not know exactly how to put what you're feeling into words. You might be carrying stress from work, family, relationships, or past experiences while trying to keep everything moving. Maybe you're feeling anxious, discouraged, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to move forward after something difficult has happened. I work with children, adolescents, teens, and adults from diverse backgrounds who are navigating difficult experiences, trauma, life changes, and emotional challenges. As a counselor in Texas for more than 14 years, my goal is to meet you where you are and help you find a path forward that feels meaningful to you.

Therapist

I've been a therapist for 14 years, and in that time I've learned that people need space to be heard. I work with clients navigating relationships, identity, cultural and ethnic experiences, LGBTQ+ concerns, stress, trauma, and the particular weight that women often carry without anyone noticing. My style is warm and direct. I'll laugh with you, and I'll also tell you the truth when it matters. Outside of work, I'm usually on the sidelines at my son's games, hunting down a restaurant I've never tried, or talking someone into an experience that's a little more immersive than they signed up for. A bit of whimsy goes a long way, in therapy and everywhere else.

I’m a trauma‐focused therapist who helps clients heal in a safe, gentle, and effective way. My approach goes beyond talk therapy to include experiential methods that support deep nervous‐system healing while you remain fully in control. I draw from psychodynamic, somatic, and humanistic traditions to help you reconnect with yourself and move forward with confidence

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.

Therapist

Virtual • Mansfield, TX


I believe healing begins when people feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I provide a compassionate, trauma-informed approach that combines evidence-based therapy with a genuine, collaborative relationship.

I work with teens, adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, stress, and family conflict. I also enjoy helping clients overcome people-pleasing, establish healthy boundaries, improve communication, and process difficult life experiences that continue to impact the present.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent 19 years working in public education, helping children, teens, and families navigate emotional challenges, strengthen communication, build resilience, and develop practical coping skills. That experience continues to shape my approach by meeting clients where they are and focusing on their unique strengths.
