About DeVonne
Dr. DeVonne Allen is a licensed Clinical Social Worker, listed as an LCSW in New York, with 13 years of experience.

In sessions she works step by step, breaking bigger issues into manageable pieces. People can expect worksheets, thought records, skills practice, and short-term goal planning when these tools are useful. She also uses discussion to reframe difficult experiences and identify practical next steps.
For someone juggling work, parenting, and health, her style aims to balance realism with active problem solving. She encourages people to try a few changes, check progress, and adjust plans as needed. To begin, clients follow the site's intake flow and schedule an initial session.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Online CBT often includes written exercises and thought records to try between sessions, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress related to parenting or work.Dialectical Behavior Therapy, known as DBT, teaches skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. In remote sessions this can mean practicing breathing and grounding skills, skills coaching, and planning small experiments to test new ways of responding to conflict or overwhelm.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about your goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn’t helped before. She will suggest options and invite your input so treatment methods match your needs and preferences.
Confirm current session formats before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Clients should check the intake flow to learn which session options are offered and then schedule an appointment that fits their routine.
