Hello, I am Deidra Wells, LMFT. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in Rancho Cucamonga, California. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Business Management and my Master’s degree in Counseling with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Phoenix. I have been in the field for 12 years in various therapy settings. My specialties include addiction counseling with treatment of underlying mental health disorders or life challenges, career counseling, adulting skills, co-dependency, depression, trauma, childhood issues, grief, relationship issues, abuse and anxiety.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked with young adults and adults for the past 12 years, I've developed a method to adapt and adjust to my clients treatment goals, set backs, and challenges to help identify skills or tools that make sense for you to aid in (a) identifying the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
