In sessions she listens for underlying dynamics that feed symptoms and then tests small changes the person can try between meetings. Work may include skill coaching, behavioral experiments, and structured talk to reshape unhelpful habits. The emphasis is on skills that can be used in daily life.

How evidence-based approaches look in remote sessions
Deana uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills and behavior change. One common approach emphasizes identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce anxiety and depression. This involves short exercises in session and practice tasks to try between meetings.Another approach concentrates on exposure and response prevention for obsessive-compulsive patterns and control issues. It breaks down feared situations into manageable steps and supports gradual practice to reduce avoidance and ritual behaviors.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and daily life. That choice is reviewed and adjusted as progress or obstacles become clear.
