About Deonna

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 7 years of experience supporting adults and couples on their healing journeys. I provide a safe and compassionate space where you can explore difficult emotions, identify patterns, and develop practical coping strategies for greater balance and well-being. My approach integrates mind, body, and spirit to help you process trauma, manage life transitions, and build meaningful, healthy relationships.

I earned my Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Grand Canyon University. My approach draws from cognitive behavioral, dialectical, emotion-focused, and solution-focused therapies. I also utilize trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization reprocessing, and somatic practices to support growth and resilience.

Whether you seek emotional clarity, improved communication, or a stronger sense of self, my goal is to walk beside you as you build the life you deserve. I look forward to helping you process, heal, and rediscover your inner strength with compassion and care.

"As someone who experienced navigating a difficult childhood, being a caretaker to others and experiencing neglect and abuse, I authentically understand how experiences can linger, impacting current-day functioning, as well as how processing/healing can bring on new life."

Get to know Deonna

Why did you decide to become a counselor or psychiatric provider?

I wanted to help people discover their power, heal, and improve their lives, I later learned I also wanted to become what I needed as a teenager.

What types of clients do you work best with?

I work best with those willing to be honest with themselves and are willing to put in the hard work.

What's one thing you wish all clients knew about therapy, mental health, or the healing process?

The right therapist for a client can make all the difference in the world. Also, healing is not linear, so there will be ups, downs, setbacks, and huge strides at times.

What can clients expect in their first session with you and in the early stages of therapy?

Initial sessions are getting to know own another as people as well as providing psychoeducation and tool/resources building to get started. This can include brief homework to complete between sessions.

How do you tailor therapy to meet each client’s unique needs?

I am intentional in getting to know each person I work with, and I never see people as a diagnosis or as the problems they are coming in with. I would never minimize someone's experiences.
