About Devona
Devona (Dee) Head is a licensed mental health counselor in Indiana with 30 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. Dee uses clear, direct conversation to help people who feel overwhelmed or stuck begin to make changes.
Dee helps people recover from abusive narcissistic relationships and works with those facing abandonment, guilt, or shame. She also supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiver strain, aging concerns, and first responder stress.
How Devona works
Sessions address practical problems such as communication, control issues, and family of origin patterns. Her style is client-centered with an emphasis on collaboration. That means she listens first, helps clients set goals, and adapts methods to fit each person.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools are used to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build new coping skills. Dee also brings mindfulness and trauma-focused techniques into sessions when they match a client's needs. Mindfulness helps people notice stress reactions calmly, and trauma-focused work helps process painful experiences at a manageable pace.
The approach is paced to what each person can handle. Sessions combine practical skill-building with steady emotional support. Dee encourages small, realistic steps and celebrates progress along the way.
People who want straightforward guidance and a respectful, listening clinician often find this approach useful.

How Dee Uses Approaches in Online Therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's priorities. Dee uses this approach to create a respectful space where clients set goals and guide the pace of work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is a joint effort. Dee will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and what feels manageable. Together they select or blend methods so the work fits the person's needs and progress is checked along the way.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation when that helps build connection. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a workday. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to keep continuity in care and to try different formats as needs change.
