About Deidra
She focuses on helping adults manage depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, and questions of identity, with particular attention to the needs of LGBTQ+ individuals and those navigating marginalization. Her work is collaborative and compassionate, centering trauma-informed care alongside somatic therapy and mindfulness practices to support reconnection with the body, emotions, and personal agency.
Deidra approaches therapy as a space for both healing and growth. Together with clients she strengthens communication, fosters self-acceptance, and cultivates resilience so people can move toward authenticity, balance, and purpose. As an LPC - a licensed mental health professional trained in counseling and psychotherapy - she blends practical strategies with deep respect for each person’s lived experience.
Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Care
Deidra uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as core tools in her practice. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and improve daily functioning. ACT emphasizes values-based living and psychological flexibility, helping people accept difficult emotions while committing to actions that align with their priorities.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Deidra works with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts techniques over time so the therapy fits the client rather than the other way around. This teamwork helps clients discover what methods feel most effective for them.
Online therapy delivers these approaches through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and varying comfort levels. Working remotely makes it easier to maintain continuity of care across life transitions and to access licensed professionals and therapists from the convenience of home or another private location.
