Kathryn Robinson
I live in Texas and possess an unobstructed Texas professional counseling (LPC) license. I obtained a Master’s degree in Counseling and an undergraduate degree in psychology. I have worked for a mental health facility for six years and obtained experience in crisis, psycho-social rehabilitation, received training and experience in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and received a certification of training in Cognitive Processing Therapy for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I have worked with people of various ages and development. I have extensive use of the DSM IV and V. I have experience in working with those who have or have had substance abuse problems, and I have worked in two residential, judicial dual diagnosis centers. Dual diagnosis means these individuals not only have a substance abuse problem, but they have a diagnosable mental illness. There is continuous research and study, and I continue to search for arenas to expand and update my experience and knowledge in counseling techniques and in mental health. I have an extreme passion to see improvement, empowerment, support and progress not only in my clients but also in myself. I cannot help my client if I do not have those qualities myself. I am a believer in Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit and do not fear using Biblical principles in my counseling practice when requested. My main clinical approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but I also adopt other techniques from other approaches such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Gestalt, Person-Centered (Rogerian), and Integrative/Holistic. I am a firm believer that every person is composed of physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual facets, and each facet has an effect on the other aspects of the person. I have counseled individuals who have received such diagnoses as schizophrenia, bipolar, major depressive disorder, borderline personality disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, anxiety adjustment disorder to name a few. My counseling style is down-to-earth, warm, and nonthreatening. However, I will set boundaries, and I can be firm regarding those boundaries. I will correct anything that enhances negativity or the stigma that seems to accompany mental illness. I also believe in treating my clients the way I want to be treated. It is my belief that everyone has the right to a more content and rewarding life. If you are brave enough to face the issues that have kept you from these goals, then I am proud that you have chosen me to stand by your side to help you reach your goals. I look forward to working with you!
Claudia Leyton-De la Torre
Hi, I’m a licensed therapist in Texas, and I help people work through the emotional ups and downs that life throws their way. My style is warm, honest, and real—I want you to feel safe being completely yourself in our sessions. I work with anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and life transitions, and I believe therapy should feel like a genuine conversation, not an interrogation. I’m especially passionate about helping people build self-love, communicate more clearly, and feel more grounded in who they are. Whether you’re feeling stuck, stressed, or uncertain about what’s next, we’ll figure it out together. I offer sessions in English and Spanish to connect with clients from all backgrounds, and my goal is simple: to help you feel seen, supported, and capable of real change.
Katy Kong
I provide focused, direct therapy for adults and couples across Texas. If you’re ready to look honestly at the patterns shaping your reactions and relationships, we’ll work well together. Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable people who feel stuck in repeating cycles — defensiveness, withdrawal, over-functioning, or the same arguments that never get resolved. My work is trauma-informed, which means we pay attention to how past experiences shape present reactions. I help you recognize these patterns as they happen and understand what they’re protecting. When we can see the pattern clearly, we can begin to change it. I also work extensively with adults navigating ADHD, particularly when it affects emotional regulation, communication, and self-esteem. With couples, I focus on identifying reactive cycles and building clearer, more accountable communication. Therapy with me is structured, honest, and grounded in safety. We move at a pace that is challenging but not overwhelming. If you’re ready to move beyond surface-level conversations and make meaningful change, I’d be glad to work with you.

When appropriate and desired by the client, I integrate Scripture and biblical principles into the counseling process while also utilizing therapeutic interventions that support emotional and psychological well-being.

Find a therapist near you in Devers, Texas
Finding a therapist near you in Devers, Texas starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. Texas is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you.
The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.
Why work with a licensed therapist near you?
Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Texas, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.
Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Texas, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.
What concerns can therapists help with?
Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals.

In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows.

Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.
