I believe that each of us carries more wisdom about our own life than any therapist ever could. My job isn’t to hand you answers, it’s to walk alongside you as you find them. Whatever brought you to this page: a child who’s struggling, a family stuck in the same painful pattern, a relationship that needs tending, or a version of yourself you’re trying to understand, please know that we'll work together and uncover the wise part of you who can help. I work with children, teens, individuals, and families, and I especially love working with parents and kids together.

Hi, I’m Deandra, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and EMDR-trained therapist with over 13 years of helping people navigate anxiety, trauma, and life’s tough transitions. My approach blends evidence-based techniques (like EMDR and CBT) with genuine compassion—because therapy shouldn’t feel cold or clinical.

After earning my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University, I worked in various settings including: private practice, domestic violence centers, hospitals, elementary to high school education, on-call crisis, detention and rehabilitation centers, specializing in women's and men's health, survivors of trauma, LGBTQ+ folks, or high-achievers battling burnout. I became EMDR-trained in response to the Pulse Night Club Tragedy in Orlando.

When I’m not working with clients, you’ll find me enjoying life by: spending time with family and friends, being outdoors, traveling, or exercising.

I believe healing thrives when you feel safe, understood, and occasionally challenged. If you’re ready for therapy that’s both professional and deeply human, let’s talk.
