About Deanna
Deanna Perrone, LCSW, helps people who feel stuck by focusing on relationships, life changes, and past trauma. She welcomes straightforward conversation about anxiety, depression, grief, parenting strain, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and stress. Sessions are aimed at helping clients notice patterns, make different choices, and feel more like themselves over time.
She keeps work simple and paced to each person. Deanna listens without judgment and helps clients connect how earlier relationships shape current feelings and behavior. That quiet focus often reveals repeated habits that get in the way of daily life and important relationships.
Her background centers on relational psychotherapy, so much of the work looks at unconscious drives and internal conflicts. She combines that lens with practical approaches that address thinking patterns, coping skills, trauma, and loss. This mix supports both understanding and concrete change.
Deanna draws on methods that help people clarify values, change unhelpful thoughts, and build stronger emotional awareness. Sessions balance gentle challenge with safety so clients can try new ways of relating to themselves and others. The therapeutic relationship is treated as the main tool for change.
With 14 years of experience and licensure as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas, she focuses on creating steady progress rather than quick fixes. Prospective clients are invited to start with a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time to see if the fit feels right before committing to ongoing work.
How her approaches shape online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take action toward those values, even when emotions feel intense. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current bonds and reactions, which can be useful for improving closeness and trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce stress and improve mood.Finding the right approach is a joint process. She will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and temperament. That usually means combining relational exploration with practical skills so therapy feels relevant to real-life problems.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are set by the therapist. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone join from a quieter spot or choose a session style that matches their daily routine. A licensed professional will discuss which setup works best when you start.
