Background and approach

Sessions focus on concrete skills people can use between meetings, plus time to talk through emotions and patterns that get in the way. Dea draws on several evidence-informed approaches, including cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, and motivational interviewing. She also uses client-centered principles to keep sessions focused on each person’s goals and values.

She has familiarity with autism, ADHD, psychotropic medications, and attachment-related concerns. That background informs how she adapts pacing, communication style, and homework to fit each person’s needs. Dea also incorporates somatic and creative practices like bilateral movement and art when they match a person’s preferences.

People looking for straightforward, skill-focused work often find this approach helpful. Dea aims to build tools for managing anxiety and stress while helping people make meaning of life changes and relationship challenges. Sessions are offered from Indiana and conducted in English.

Therapeutic approaches that translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while learning to notice and let go of unhelpful thoughts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns, testing them, and building practical coping skills for anxiety, mood, and sleep problems. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used for processing distressing memories and reducing their emotional intensity through structured sets of attention and movement.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and past experiences and then try methods that fit the person. That collaborative process can include mixing approaches, adjusting pacing, or adding somatic or creative exercises when useful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is difficult, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer typed communication. These options help fit therapy into work, school, or family routines and make it easier to keep consistent progress without long commutes.
