Laura DeVore

I’m Laura DeVore, an LMSW, and I’m deeply committed to helping people improve their quality of life. As a Black woman who has experienced intergenerational trauma, I understand how important it is to heal while honoring your personal journey. I’ve worked with people across the lifespan, from young children to older adults, and I strive to create a safe, supportive space for individuals navigating mental health challenges, addiction, infectious disease, and other complex life experiences.

My approach to therapy is person-centered, compassionate, and tailored to each client’s unique needs. I draw from motivational interviewing, CBT, DBT, strengths-based therapy, and play therapy to support growth and healing. I also value creating spaces where clients feel empowered, understood, and able to move toward meaningful change at both a personal and community level.

Clients can expect to leave sessions feeling heard, supported, and better equipped to navigate life’s challenges. My goal is to help clients build on their strengths, develop practical tools for healing, and feel more empowered in their day-to-day lives. I want therapy to be a space where clients can safely explore their experiences and move toward lasting growth and well-being.
