Deanna Rasnic , LPC

Deanna Rasnic is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 28 years of experience working with individuals, couples, adolescents, and families. She approaches counseling as a calling and brings empathy, honesty, and practical guidance to each appointment. Deanna helps people navigate grief, relationship struggles, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and other life transitions, guiding them toward insight and steps for change. Her work often addresses how past experiences affect present functioning and she uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients face and process old hurts so those experiences do not continue to limit progress.

Deanna has provided services in a range of settings, including private practice and agency work, and has extensive experience with adoption and foster care matters. She has supported birth parents, adoptive families, and adopted children with both preplacement and postplacement counseling, and she draws on that background when helping blended families, coparenting situations, and family-of-origin concerns. In sessions she is described by her own standards as empathetic, nonjudgmental, direct, and practical, offering clear insights and recommendations while providing a dedicated space to sort through difficult emotions.

Her training includes graduate work in marriage and family counseling and she holds additional professional credentials related to clinical supervision and child-placing administration. As a Licensed Professional Counselor - LPC - she combines clinical knowledge with a straightforward, compassionate style to help clients identify goals and move toward healthier patterns.
