About DeAnna
DeAnna emphasizes a person-centered way of working. She creates a calm environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment. In sessions she listens closely, helps clients identify strengths, and supports practical next steps aimed at everyday life improvements.
Her background includes work across case management, supportive counseling, and work with people facing behavioral and social barriers. That experience informs how she helps with communication problems, grief, caregiver stress, and challenges tied to aging and blended family situations.
She uses techniques drawn from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness Therapy. These approaches are used to help with anxiety, coping skills, addictive behaviors, and building more satisfying relationships and self-regard.
DeAnna also addresses issues like career concerns, parenting strains, intimacy-related problems, compassion fatigue, and multicultural or LGBTQ questions. Her practice focuses on helping people find realistic strategies that fit their daily lives.

How her approaches fit into online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the relationship in the room. It centers the person's own goals and pacing, with the therapist listening closely and reflecting what matters most. This helps when the priority is feeling heard and understood during stressful times.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, organizes problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers clear tools to try at home, which can reduce anxiety, manage anger, and change unhelpful patterns over weeks.
Mindfulness Therapy trains gentle awareness of present-moment experience. Simple breathing and attention practices are used to calm strong emotions and improve focus in daily life.
Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals, needs, and preferences, and adjusts strategies as work progresses.
Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week. Online work can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and make it simpler to continue care across life changes. Because session formats are not specified here, please confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered.
