She often teaches breathing and grounding practices alongside thought-focused exercises.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Deidra commonly brings Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy into online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small experiments, which can help with anxiety, anger, and mood problems. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus, useful for stress and sleep issues.She also draws on Motivational Interviewing when change feels difficult. That approach uses open questions and reflective listening to help people clarify what matters and find their own reasons to shift behavior. Together these approaches let her mix skills training, brief experiments, and values-focused conversation in a way that fits the person’s goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided collaboratively. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before to shape a plan that feels doable. Sessions can include homework, short practices, or conversational check-ins depending on the client’s needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for longer therapy sessions and visual cues, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quicker way to check in, and text messaging supports brief updates or reminders. These options aim to make scheduling easier and to fit therapy into busy lives.
