Devin Dutson, LCSW
Teen & Adult Therapist in Orem, Utah
Devin Dutson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the founder of Compass Mental Health Services in Orem, Utah. With 19 years of experience, he works with teens and adults on trauma, anxiety, depression, and more — in person in Utah County and by telehealth across Utah. His approach is warm, person-centered, and especially effective with teenagers.
Teen therapy that teens actually stick with
Teen therapy only works if the teenager genuinely likes and trusts their therapist — otherwise they shut down and it goes nowhere. That rapport is exactly what clients respond to with Devin. Over 19 years, teens have been one of the groups he connects with most naturally, helping them work through emotional and behavioral struggles without feeling judged or lectured.
How Devin works
Devin is person-centered. He builds a relationship of trust with each client while directly addressing the concerns that brought them in. Clients describe him as deeply empathetic and non-judgmental — someone who is easy to be honest with.
He also pays attention to how you process things. Some people are more cognitive and want to think a problem through; others are more emotion-focused and need space to feel it. Devin reads which mode fits you and adapts the therapeutic process accordingly, rather than forcing everyone through the same script.
He works best with any client who isn’t afraid to be their authentic self.
