About Deva
Deva Roy is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 22 years of experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family issues, low self-esteem, depression, grief, parenting challenges, and life changes. Social anxiety and phobia are listed among her focus areas. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.
Deva centers therapy on the client's own perspective. She treats clients as the expert on their story and looks for existing strengths to build on. In practical terms that means listening carefully, asking focused questions, and helping people try small changes between sessions.
Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes getting a clear sense of a person's goals and preferences. CBT helps identify thought patterns and behaviors that increase stress or anxiety and practices alternatives step by step.
Deva has supported people through divorce and separation, grief, panic attacks, and feelings of isolation. She also addresses communication problems, control issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose and self-love. Her approach aims to break down problems into manageable steps.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding a person's goals and preferences. Online sessions using this approach begin by setting clear goals and checking what the client wants to work on. This helps keep sessions focused and practical for people who find social situations or meeting new people hard.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online work CBT often means practicing new thinking patterns and small behavioral experiments between sessions, such as brief exposure steps for social anxiety or tracking anxious thoughts to test them later.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and may adapt the plan as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. For some people that practical flexibility helps them keep working on social situations and anxiety between appointments.
