About Dev (she/her):
I am a Master’s level Counselling Psychology Student offering individual counselling to adults of all ages.
My approach is person-focused, strengths-based, and adaptive.
I draw from a variety of modalities to best support your needs, including parts-work, somatic therapy, and mindfulness.
Sometimes life can feel overwhelming, confusing, and painful. You don’t have to navigate the challenges of being human alone. I am here to listen and support you. Our work together can help process past events, and create space for what is most present and meaningful now.
My practice is informed by my lived experience as a queer and neurodivergent person, and by my background as a yoga and meditation teacher.
A commitment to social justice is important to my work, and I strive to create a space that is trauma-informed, neurodivergent-affirming, anti-oppressive, and rooted in harm reduction.
It is an honour to be part of your learning and growth. I look forward to walking alongside you during this process.
I offer support with (but not limited to):
Anxiety
Life transitions and change
Grief and loss
Relationships
Identity and existential questioning
Spirituality
Neurodivergence
I use an integrative therapeutic framework, informed by:
Parts Work
Mindfulness
Somatic therapy
Emotion-focused
