DeVon Mills, PhD, LPC, CSAT-C

I have intensively trained in order to help people navigate some of the most complex parts of their lives. I have additional graduate training in sex therapy and trauma counseling at both the masters and doctorate level. At the post-graduate level, I have pursued further training in sex addictions treatment and received trauma-informed supervision and consultation so that I can work with those dealing with complex-trauma and addictive sexual behaviors. My doctoral research focused on male experiences and masculinity.
