Deanna Perrone, LCSW

Deanna Perrone is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing relationship strain, grief, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD, and life changes. She offers calm, steady support for people wrestling with stress, trauma, parenting concerns, intimacy questions, or career shifts. Deanna aims to make therapy feel approachable and clear, one step at a time.

She brings 14 years of clinical experience and focuses on how relationships and past experiences shape current patterns. Sessions look at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors together so practical changes can follow. She uses straightforward tools to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day coping.

Deanna tailors her work to each person’s goals. That can mean talking through painful memories, learning new ways to communicate, or building routines that help mood and energy. She balances listening with careful challenges to help people try different strategies.

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral methods to address unhelpful thinking and on acceptance and commitment techniques to clarify values and encourage meaningful action. Attachment-based ideas inform how relationships and early experiences influence reactions today. Motivational interviewing and client-centered principles guide a collaborative, respectful pace.

People who come to her often want to break repetitive patterns, strengthen relationships, or find steadiness after loss or trauma. Deanna works with issues like abandonment, blended family questions, caregiver stress, chronic illness, domestic violence recovery, and life transitions. She practices in Texas and conducts sessions in English.

Online approaches that focus on thinking, values, and relationships

Deanna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people recognize and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT offers concrete strategies for anxiety, depression, ADHD challenges, and stress so people can try new ways of responding to difficult situations.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps clarify what matters most and encourages small committed steps in that direction. ACT can be useful for coping with chronic pain, grief, and ongoing mood or stress struggles. Attachment-Based Therapy is part of her lens for understanding how early and current relationships shape feelings and reactions, which can guide work on intimacy and communication issues.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which strategies to try and adjust the plan as progress or new needs appear.

Online sessions offer flexible ways to get care. Video calls let people meet face to face when schedules allow. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging support ongoing reflection, quick check-ins, and people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or daily life.
