Helping you learn and feel good about yourself by healing your trauma
Clinical therapist specializing in anxiety, trauma, eating disorders, and disordered eating
I’m Devra, and I want to tell you a bit about myself
My strengths include my experience in trauma and attachment, my empathetic approach in my work, and my ability to make important connections with and for my clients.
I have vast training and experience in attachment theory and trauma. I am able to create safe and caring therapeutic relationships that allow clients to share their vulnerable trauma, feelings, fears and hopes to facilitate positive change. I help clients understand the source of their struggle or trauma in a non judgemental way which allows for clients to make real and lasting change.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending my time with my family and friends. Both are important for my own mental wellbeing. I also have a beautiful rescue pup, Bernie.
Starting therapy, even if you have been in therapy in the past, can be scary and daunting especially when trying to find the right therapist.
Using a trauma informed and attachment focus in my therapeutic practice, I work with clients to help navigate some of life's toughest challenges and traumaS. I truly care about the well-being of my clients and I am committed to helping them achieve their therapeutic goals. I create a warm, welcoming, safe, and supportive environment because I want my clients to feel comfortable opening up and being vulnerable; necessary in facilitating significant therapeutic shifts. I offer insights and perspectives and help my clients to better understand themselves, their experiences, why they feel and perceive themselves a certain way, and why they react the way they do.
I help clients build the tools needed to cope with difficult emotions and situations. Whether we are working through relationship issues, eating disorder symptoms, dealing with anxiety and depression, or simply exploring your own sense of purpose, I am there to offer guidance and support every step of the way.
Client Experiences
“Devra has created a safe and welcoming environment, from the moment I stepped into her office, I felt an immediate assurance that I was going to be ok.
Her kind demeanor made it effortless for me to open myself up and share my deepest thoughts and emotions, which is a very difficult thing for me to do. Devra made our space a safe one free from judgment. She empathizes with her clients in such a way that it calms you in times of chaos. She has displayed an exceptional level of empathy that instilled in me a sense of being truly seen and heard. Devra’s compassion has served as a steady anchor, allowing me to confront my most challenging experiences with confidence and resilience.
I have learned in my years of therapy that no two people can heal the same way. Devra truly personalized her treatment plan that will help all her clients differently. Through active listening and thoughtful questioning, she has gained a profound understanding of my needs, fears, and aspirations, and with that she ensures that every session was purposeful and transformative.
I was always very hesitant when thinking about therapy, but Devra’s expertise, empathy, and unwavering support has guided me through the darkest moments, and we are working to reclaim my deserved happiness and build a brighter future for myself.
There will never be enough words to explain my feelings and thoughts for what she has done for me. She has saved my life…..”
