About Devyna

Devyna Aguon is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Washington with 14 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, trauma, and related issues such as grief, anger, and addictions. She also supports those dealing with ADHD, caregiver strain, and relationship problems.

Devyna has worked extensively in school settings supporting children and teens with social, emotional, and behavioral needs. She approaches work in a straightforward way and focuses on practical skills people can use day to day. Sessions start with clear goals and steps to move toward them.

Her clinical work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and trauma-focused ideas. She asks about what is happening now, notices unhelpful thoughts and habits, and tries small changes to test what helps. The aim is to build skills that reduce distress and improve coping.

Devyna describes her style as laid back and collaborative. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and looks for strengths to build on. Cultural awareness is part of her practice; as a member of the BIPOC community she intentionally addresses multicultural concerns.

People who choose Devyna can expect a goal-oriented approach with emphasis on learning new strategies. She encourages straightforward planning, short-term problem solving, and ongoing adjustments as needs change.

How Devyna uses structured approaches for online work

Devyna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT focuses on breaking problems into manageable steps and testing small changes to lower anxiety or improve mood.

She also uses Client-Centered ideas that prioritize what matters most to the person in front of her, and Motivational Interviewing to support people who feel stuck or ambivalent about change. Client-Centered work focuses on listening and reflecting what the person says, while Motivational Interviewing helps explore mixed feelings and build reasons to act.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, then suggest methods to try. This process is collaborative and can be adjusted over time based on what feels most useful.

The practical benefit of remote sessions is fitting therapy into everyday life. Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, or fit sessions into a workday break, while face-to-face sessions may work better for others. The focus is on making therapy consistent and workable with daily routines.
