If you want a therapist who brings personality, won’t bs you, and makes you laugh - Hi, I’m Deanna! Just a down-to-earth therapist who keeps things real & makes sessions feel human (and sometimes even fun!). Want to untangle all the messy thoughts in your brain so you can like… actually breathe again? Do you spiral over every “what if,” feel stuck in patterns that stem from the past, or feel like you’re losing your mind trying to figure out who you are & where you’re going? If you want to make sense of it all without judgment, basic "talk therapy," or silent nods behind a clipboard... you've come to the right place!
I work with LGBTQ+ folks & anyone navigating OCD, anxiety, trauma, gender / sexuality, or big life changes. I’m openly queer, EMDR-trained, and love using humor (yes, we can laugh while we heal!). We'll collaborate to make therapy tailored to you, so you get what you need & start seeing the changes you want!
Let’s be real: life is messy. But no one said you have to navigate it alone. Want a co-pilot for the chaos? Let’s figure it out together - I’m just a message away when you feel ready!
