About
Devan Dewees
LCSW-C
First and foremost, welcome. Taking the first step towards change can be difficult. I am so glad you're here.
​
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C) in Maryland with ten years of experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults in community mental health centers, intensive outpatient programs, residential treatment, and public and non-public school settings.
​
As a therapist, I do not believe there is such a thing as a 'one size fits all' approach. Each client is unique, and the intricacies of the therapeutic relationship vary from person to person, so using a collaborative approach to determine your goals and needs is what I have found works best.
Throughout our work together, I may utilize various treatment modalities, such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Mindfulness, and/or Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) to guide you through the healing process.
​
My goal as your therapist is to provide a safe environment for you to experience vulnerability and be your authentic self. Along the way, I hope to empower you and provide you with the tools you need to reach your goals.
