Devin Brunston, LMHC

Devin Brunston is a Rhode Island licensed clinician with eight years of professional experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, and depression. He brings focused experience supporting clients facing LGBT-related concerns, struggles with motivation, and challenges to self esteem and confidence. His work also addresses feelings of guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, questions about life purpose, mood disorders, panic attacks, sexuality, and social anxiety or phobia.

Devin believes that each person is the expert of their own story and that they hold strengths that can be called on to meet difficult moments. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients identify patterns, build coping skills, and make practical changes aligned with their goals. Taking the first step toward therapy can take courage, and Devin acknowledges and honors that decision while offering steady support through the early stages of care.

As an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor - he applies clinical training to assist clients in developing greater clarity, resilience, and confidence as they work toward meaningful change.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Online Care

Devin uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help clients notice and reframe unhelpful thought patterns and the behaviors that follow. These approaches aim to reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety, and mood disturbances by teaching practical skills for managing difficult moments.

He also employs skill-building strategies that focus on emotion management, increased confidence, and improved coping for issues like self-esteem, isolation, and panic. These techniques emphasize concrete tools and practice, helping clients apply new skills in their day-to-day lives and measure progress over time.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Devin works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best for their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they explore priorities, try strategies, and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Devin is offered through several remote formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to attend sessions consistently, access support from home or work, and maintain continuity of care even when life is busy.
