Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Clients can expect to feel a better understanding of how their behavior patterns have formed over the course of their lifetime as soon as the first session. There is a great emphasis on exploring past life experiences and how they have shaped a client's current outlook on their world.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My biggest strengths are asking questions that allow clients to explore their own deeper-seated thoughts and feelings.

My treatment methods

Addressing self-talk and negative life outlook informs on a client's life perspective. I assist client's with recognizing these patterns and implementing new approaches to viewing life's difficult moments.

I've worked with Deanna for a couple years now and she has really helped me find my sense of self and stay true to that person in my relationships, career, and now motherhood. Sometimes life gets in the way of attending session, but Deanna never makes me feel bad for being gone. We're able to pick things up as if no time has passed. She's been a consistent support in my mental health journey and I'm grateful.
