Devadaressne R - Counselling Psychologist

Hello! I’m Devadaressne, and I aim to offer a space where you feel understood, supported, and gently guided forward with clarity and self-care. I work with children, adults, and parents experiencing anxiety, stress, emotional overwhelm, self-esteem and body-image concerns, anger management difficulties, parenting challenges, and emotional changes during pregnancy and the postpartum period. With children, I use supportive behavioural approaches to strengthen emotional regulation, communication, and everyday coping skills. My approach is eclectic and client-centred, guided by each individual’s needs. I draw from Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and behavioural and other evidence-based practices to support meaningful and sustainable change.
