Devon is a licensed psychotherapist practicing in New Canaan, CT. She works with children, adolescents, adults, families and groups.
Everyone struggles with a variety of issues throughout their lives. It is my goal to help people through these struggles and come out with a better understanding of themselves and improve on their ability to cope in the future. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience working in hospitals, schools, mental health clinics and private practice.
I enjoy working with children, adolescents, families and young adults with various needs including those dealing with divorce, life transitions, personal crisis, depression, anxiety, sleep disorders, eating disorders, relationship and family issues, trauma, grief and loss. In addition, I work with children with developmental disorders, behavioral disorders and emotional disturbance.
I utilize many diverse therapeutic approaches in treatment including play therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, relational, behavioral and family systems. I find that being flexible in treatment approach is important in meeting the unique needs of the individuals and families I work with.
