DeAnna Hight

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in helping people and families cope with multiple sclerosis and other long-term health issues, I’ve developed a deep dedication to providing compassionate and effective therapeutic interventions. As a therapist who personally lives with multiple sclerosis, I am acutely aware of the profound physical, emotional, and social impact that chronic conditions can have on an individual’s life. I continue to derive satisfaction from assisting individuals and families who seek therapeutic support for various life challenges. My clinical background includes working in diverse settings, such as outpatient clinics, hospitals, domestic and international schools, and community programs, offering support at all levels of care. My experience encompasses working with a wide range of diagnoses and diverse populations.

My approach is person-centered, collaborative, and strength-based, incorporating elements of humor to foster a positive and supportive environment. My tools are tailored to meet each individual’s unique needs, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Expressive Arts.

I believe that we all share common needs and aspirations; yet, I acknowledge that our individual life experiences give rise to distinct challenges. Furthermore, I hold the conviction that we all possess unique traits, abilities, and talents that serve as our means to heal, change, and grow.

I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore your experiences, identify your needs, and engage in some collaborative problem-solving.
