About Devyna
Devyna Aguon is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Washington with 14 years of experience. She works with adults and young people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, trauma, and related challenges such as addiction, ADHD, and codependency. She writes plainly about helping people build new skills to manage life when old ways stop working.
Much of her work has been in school settings supporting children and teens with social, emotional, and behavioral needs, and that experience influences how she talks with people now. She approaches counseling from a trauma-informed perspective and draws on practical methods. Sessions focus on setting clear goals and practicing skills that make day-to-day life easier.
Devyna uses Client-Centered ideas to listen and follow each person's priorities. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy help with change planning and small, achievable steps.
She identifies as a member of the BIPOC community and pays attention to cultural context when working with people. Her style is relaxed and adjusts to what each person needs. She frames clients as experts in their own lives and builds on existing strengths.
If someone wants to get started she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The site’s booking flow contains the See online therapy options button to begin that process.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Devyna uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen closely and prioritize what matters to the person in front of her. That approach helps shape goals and keeps sessions focused on the client’s priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to notice patterns of thinking and try concrete behavior changes to reduce stress and worry. Motivational Interviewing supports making decisions and taking the small steps people choose to try.Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals, preferences, and the practical demands of their life. That may mean focusing more on coping skills at first or shifting to trauma-focused work when timing and readiness align.
Session formats are not listed explicitly in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Working this way can help people practice new skills in the settings where problems occur, while adapting pacing and homework to real life.
