About Dwanne

Dwanne Clayton, LCSW, CSW, offers straightforward, practical therapy for adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, depression, and ADHD. She writes in a calm, encouraging way and focuses on helping people find useful steps they can take right now.

Clayton uses clear tools to help people manage mood, boost motivation, and improve communication. Sessions emphasize problem-solving, building coping skills, and setting small, achievable goals.

Background and approach

She also helps people navigate grief, trauma, intimacy concerns, sleep problems, parenting stress, and work-related burnout or compassion fatigue. She draws on several therapeutic approaches to match what each person needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients clarify values and act despite difficult feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy addresses patterns of thought and behavior that fuel anxiety or low mood. Client-centered methods keep the conversation focused on the person’s experience and goals. Clayton has five years of direct therapy experience and holds the LCSW and CSW credentials.

She practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English. Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and styles. Starting is simple: complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a session.

The therapist works with each person to choose realistic steps and small changes that add up over time.

Online approaches and how they work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking meaningful action even when uncomfortable feelings show up. It helps when people struggle with worry, low motivation, or chronic stress by guiding small value-driven steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and offers concrete ways to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep issues. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation centered on the client’s own experience and priorities, helping people feel heard and supported while they set goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with each person to identify goals and try approaches that match those goals and personal preferences. That collaborative process allows adjustments over time so the work stays relevant and practical.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit a busy life. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule appointments, maintain continuity through life changes, and pick the format that feels most comfortable.
