About Devin
Devin Brunston is a Rhode Island Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with eight years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, LGBTQ issues, self-esteem, and depression. He also works around guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, mood disorders, panic attacks, sexuality, and social anxiety.
Devin approaches the work believing each person knows their own story. He listens for strengths and practical options clients can use between sessions. Conversations are meant to be direct and focused on what the client wants to change or understand more clearly.
Sessions include talking through current problems and identifying manageable steps. He helps people notice thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going. When panic or intense anxiety comes up, he uses grounding and pacing to reduce immediate distress and then looks at what maintains the cycle.
Devin supports people exploring sexual identity and LGBTQ concerns without assuming answers. He offers a steady presence while clients clarify values, boundaries, and relationship choices. For low motivation or confidence, he breaks goals into small experiments clients can try between sessions.
People who contact him typically start with a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. He works in Rhode Island as an LMHC and holds eight years of professional practice.

How his approaches translate to online work
Devin uses evidence-based techniques that focus on present problems and practical change. One common strand is cognitive restructuring, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test more balanced ideas; this is useful for social anxiety, depression, and generalized worry. Another element is behavioral experiments and activity planning, where small tests or daily tasks help rebuild confidence and reduce avoidance patterns; that approach helps with low motivation, panic cycles, and social fears. Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. He will discuss goals, trial methods, and adjust steps based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist work together to pick skills and exercises that fit the person's life and priorities. The site does not list specific session formats for this clinician, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work often makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, with shorter check-ins or sessions that avoid travel. It can also let people use audio rather than video when bandwidth or comfort is a concern. Ask about the available formats when you view online therapy options so scheduling matches your routine and technical needs.Sheet 3
