About Devyna

Devyna Aguon is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) practicing in Washington with 14 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, relationship struggles, and family of origin issues. She also supports people facing grief, addiction, ADHD, and major life changes.

Her clinical work grew from years in school settings, where she supported children and teens with social, emotional, and behavioral needs. That background informs how she talks through difficulties now with adults. She starts by identifying concrete goals a person wants to reach and then uses practical strategies to work toward them.

Devyna draws on client-centered ways of working and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns and try new behaviors. She also uses Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy to build momentum and set short-term, achievable steps. Trauma-focused ideas inform her practice when past experiences affect current functioning.

She describes herself as relaxed in approach and adapts to individual preferences. As a member of the BIPOC community, she pays attention to cultural context and how identity shapes experience. Her sessions focus on skills people can use between meetings to manage stress and move toward their goals.

Her practice emphasizes collaboration: the person in therapy is treated as the expert on their own life. To begin, clients are invited to select goals and try practical tools while checking progress along the way.

How Devyna Uses Therapeutic Approaches Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person in front of her. It helps people clarify goals and feel understood while deciding on next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It provides hands-on techniques for managing anxiety, depression, and unhelpful thinking patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Devyna will work with each client to identify what techniques fit their goals and preferences, and adjust methods as progress is tracked. The emphasis is on practical steps you can try between sessions and on reviewing what works and what needs change.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people choose virtual sessions because they can fit appointments into a workday, reduce travel time, or have shorter check-ins when needed. Online meetings can also make it easier to involve concrete tools and worksheets in session, which supports CBT and solution-focused work.
