Dr. Stephanie Devlin
I’m Stephanie Devlin, PhD, LPC-S an experienced mental health therapist with over 16 years of leadership in education and counseling. My passion is empowering individuals – specializing in trauma recovery, resilience building, and fostering self-compassion. I earned Bachelor’s degrees in Sociology & Psychology from the University of Texas at Austin, followed by both Master’s and Doctorate degrees in Counseling. I’m dedicated to promoting mental health awareness and reducing stigma. I believe everyone can benefit from the perspective of an objective third party.
Outside of my clinical work, I’ve served as an Adjunct Professor for local graduate counseling programs, dedicated to the academic development and shaping of future counselors. Additionally, I’m a certified yoga instructor, a proud mom to twin girls, and a passionate music enthusiast who loves attending concerts. These roles have taught me that life’s most profound lessons often unfold in the most unexpected moments, and are best accompanied by a fitting soundtrack.
Recognizing the intricate link between the mind and body, I incorporate mindfulness techniques to support overall well-being. I understand that genuine healing encompasses the nurturing of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Amid adversity, we often experience isolation, and I’ve witnessed firsthand how community and connection can facilitate healing. I’m honored to contribute to the FW Health Collective team, where diverse perspectives converge to create transformative experiences.
Taking that step to enter the therapy room is pivotal. Even now, I recall its significance vividly from when I embarked on my journey at 16. My aim is to hold space for you because I recognize the profound discoveries that can unfold within it.
Who I Work With:
Individuals coping with trauma, PTSD, or grief
Parents, families, and adolescents facing challenges
Individuals seeking personal growth or self-discovery
Those managing life transitions or adjustments

Sarah Gill
My name is Sarah Gill and I bring to the table 14 years and counting of knowledge and passion working in the field of counseling. I graduated in 2011 with my MS in Clinical-Counseling Psychology from Illinois State University. Prior to that, I received my BA in Psychology from Austin College.
My first exposure to counseling was at a Children’s Advocacy Center, where I saw firsthand the devastation trauma and crisis take on the entire family system. From there, I’ve worked in many high-intensity environments including completing emergency room screenings, an inpatient psychiatric facility, and on a 24/7 mobile crisis team serving Tarrant County. Over the years, I have been trained in working with individuals experiencing both acute and chronic mental health conditions using modalities such as CBT and DBT, and I am so excited to have added EMDR to my toolkit. I am currently wrapping up my full EMDR certification and beginning my Certification in Perinatal Mental Health.
I consider my profession to be a privilege as I know how difficult it can be to be open and vulnerable about life’s hardest moments. What an honor it has been to sit with so many clients in their lowest lows, and just as much to rejoice with them in the highs. I always have hope for my clients, and I will work to make sure you find your own but, in the meantime, I’m happy to let you borrow some of mine.
Finding the right counselor can be a daunting task, but I believe the best counselor for you is going to be the one with whom you have the best relationship. The one you click with. Studies show that successful outcomes from counseling come not as much from the training and background of the counselor, though those things matter too, but more so from the dynamics between counselor and client. I would love to build a relationship with you and to help you meet your counseling goals!
Outside of work, my favorite people call me “Mama” and I love spending time with my family, including my two very cute kids. I am active in my church and enjoy playing piano in the praise band. Music has always been my favorite form of self-expression and therapeutic release. I am a die-hard Green Bay Packers fan and am a proud Midwesterner by birth. My love languages are pizza and beach vacations. Counseling is serious work, but it doesn’t always have to be serious and I love a good counseling meme.
