About Deanna
Deanna Perrone is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and relationship struggles. She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can speak openly about emotions and life pressures. She listens for patterns that come from past and present relationships.
Then she gently helps people notice how those patterns show up in daily life. Sessions move at the client's pace and focus on building a clearer sense of self and better coping skills.
Background and approach
Her work centers on relational themes and attachment issues, aiming to surface unconscious drives that affect current choices. She combines this with practical tools when that fits the client's goals. Those tools can include approaches that target unhelpful thoughts, improve coping, or address trauma and grief.
Deanna emphasizes collaboration. She and the client set goals together and adjust the path as needed. The approach balances support with gentle challenges to encourage insight and change.
With 14 years of experience, she brings steady clinical experience to sessions in Texas. Conversations focus on real-life problems like parenting stress, career challenges, intimacy concerns, and coping with loss. People who prefer a thoughtful, relationship-focused therapist may find her style approachable and down-to-earth.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values despite uncomfortable thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and living with ADHD symptoms when avoidance gets in the way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it often helps with anxiety, stress, and mood concerns.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. That process is collaborative, so adjustments are made if something is not working or if priorities change.
Online therapy offers flexibility across formats: video calls for in-depth sessions, phone appointments when bandwidth is lower or a quieter voice check-in is needed, and live chat or text messaging for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity during moves, and use shorter formats when a quick conversation is most helpful.
