Devon supports individuals that are feeling overwhelmed and stressed as a result of work and experiences related to fertility challenges, pregnancy, and peri/menopause. Many women and their partners experience shifts in their identity, responsibilities, and relationships that can lead to stress, disconnection, and uncertainty about how to move forward.

Through a trauma-informed and compassionate approach, clients can release stress, emotional blocks and develop coping strategies. Therapy can provide the safe space to heal, grow, and navigate life’s transitions with more confidence — fostering your wellbeing and relationships along the way.

Devon’s integrative approach draws from Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

EFT supports clients to connect and express their emotions in a conscious and confident way which supports the process and provides lasting positive change in relationships.

CBT fosters awareness and change with unhelpful patterns and behaviours.

EMDR helps treat the memory and nervous system related to adverse experiences to reduce distress and current triggers affecting a person’s quality of life.

Combining these evidence-based practices with client-centered and trauma-informed care, Devon supports and gently challenges clients to move toward their healing and thriving goals.

She helps clients reduce stress through self-awareness, mindfulness, breathwork, and the mind–body connection to foster resilience and fulfillment. Her sessions often incorporate practical mindfulness techniques, coping strategies, and breathwork to help clients tap into inner strengths, feel more in control, and reconnect with their sense of wholeness and well-being.

She is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) who works with individuals (16+) navigating burnout, anxiety, depression, and stress related to work, relationships, and the challenges of life experiences.

Devon is available for in person and telehealth (online) sessions. Additional times may be available - feel free to book a complimentary consultation to connect and explore working together.

Amanda Lucia, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

Most people believe trauma must be born from a catastrophic event or experience they’ve encountered; however, traumatic experiences can also be anything that leaves a lasting negative impact in your life that affects your overall mental health. Many traumatic events and/or distressing experiences can follow us from childhood into our adulthood prompting our personalities, behaviours and responses to stress making us vulnerable to mental health struggles. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), I am passionate about supporting individuals, parents looking for support as well as children (10+) on their path toward healing, growth, and resilience. By supporting youth, I work collaboratively with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relational difficulties, and life transitions, and I provide a compassionate and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and empowered. My therapeutic approach is integrative and tailored to each client’s unique needs. I draw from evidence-based modalities such as Emotion-Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), Narrative Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I believe that the therapeutic relationship is central to change, and I strive to foster trust, safety, and authenticity in every session. I hold a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology and am committed to ongoing professional development. I approach my work from an attachment theory, anti-oppressive, trauma-informed lens and deeply respect the cultural and personal identities each client brings into the therapeutic space. Together, we can explore your story, reconnect with your strengths, and work toward meaningful, sustainable change.
