Devona (Dee) Head, LMHC

Devona (Dee) Head is a licensed mental health counselor in Indiana with three decades of clinical experience. She focuses on helping adults manage anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, and low self-esteem. Dee uses clear, straightforward methods to help people find steadier ground.

Dee works in a calm, nonjudgmental way. She aims to build an open space where clients can name their thoughts and feelings. Sessions are practical and focused on what the person wants to change.

Over 30 years she has supported people recovering from abusive and narcissistic relationships and coping with a range of stressors. She also helps with issues tied to family of origin, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and feelings of emptiness or shame. Past work includes assisting first responders and those facing grief after loss.

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to examine unhelpful thought patterns. She pairs that with client-centered listening so each person guides the pace and topics in their work. Mindfulness and trauma-focused strategies are used where they fit the person's needs.

Dee describes therapy as a partnership. She works with clients to set clear goals and practical steps. The focus is on building everyday skills that make life more manageable and meaningful.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Dee uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT-style work often involves clear goals, homework between sessions, and practical steps to reduce anxiety or depressive patterns.

She also practices client-centered therapy, which means the person directs what matters most in sessions. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and adjusts the pace so work matches the client's needs and comfort.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Dee talks with each person about their goals and preferences, and they choose methods together. Treatment plans are flexible and evolve as progress is made.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits for people in Indiana and beyond. Video calls let conversations feel face-to-face, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text messaging can keep work going between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between meetings.
