Great to meet you!

I'm Deidre, and for over two decades I've helped people move through some of life's most painful and disorienting transitions — loss, illness, divorce, relationship struggles, aging, and the quiet fears that come with facing mortality. My clients often tell me that what they needed most wasn't advice — it was someone who truly listened, who could help them make sense of what they were feeling and find a path forward. That's what I'm here to do!

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy is a collaborative process, not a quick fix. Together, we'll explore not just what's happening now, but how your past experiences and relationships shape your present — and we'll do that at a pace that feels safe and right for you. I bring empathy, genuine curiosity, and a deep belief in your capacity to grow and adapt.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is about getting to know you — your story, your goals, and what you're hoping therapy will bring you. From there, we'll build a plan together. Sessions are collaborative, reflective, and always centered on what matters most to you.
