Mrs Philippa Devas

Ms Philippa Devas is a psychodynamic psychotherapist with a postgraduate diploma in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy from WPF Therapy. Her work is informed by a particular interest in the ideas of Carl Jung. She has primarily worked with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression, grief and loss, stress, and recovery from trauma and addiction.

Ms Devas also holds a foundation qualification in couples counselling from Tavistock Relationships, supporting her work with relationship difficulties. Before training as a psychotherapist, she had a long career in the design industry and ran her own business. This background gives her a clear understanding of work demands and how professional pressures can affect mental health, relationships, and the balance between work, home, and personal life.

She regularly attends seminars and conferences to continue her professional development and to engage with both therapeutic and academic communities.

In addition to psychotherapy, Ms Devas is a fully qualified yoga teacher registered with Yoga Alliance. She completed her Hatha yoga teacher training in 2012 and Level 1 Kundalini yoga teacher training in 2019. Her understanding of the connection between mind and body informs her therapeutic practice.
