About Deirdre
Deirdre Owens is an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Nevada with five years of experience. She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem, and family-related issues. She speaks English and works with people who want practical, organized help.
Deirdre uses clear, goal-oriented methods in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas to address relationships and values that matter to each person.
Sessions tend to be structured so people leave with specific steps to try between meetings. That could include short behavioral experiments, thought records, or practicing new ways to handle difficult feelings. Deirdre also incorporates skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy when intense emotions or self-harm concerns are present.
Her work addresses a broad set of struggles beyond mood and anxiety, including panic, social anxiety, personality-related patterns, communication problems, blended family issues, chronic illness or pain, and questions about life purpose and self-love. She pays attention to multicultural concerns and how identity shapes daily challenges.
People who choose her can expect a collaborative process that balances problem-solving with attention to how relationships and values influence choices. To begin, clients follow the site's sign-up steps to match and schedule a first session.
How her therapeutic approaches work online
Deirdre commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on spotting thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going and testing different actions to change them. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and commit to small, value-based steps even when uncomfortable feelings appear.She also brings attachment-based ideas into conversations about relationships. That approach looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect how people relate now and targets concrete ways to change those patterns. Choosing a primary approach is a shared decision that will depend on the clients goals, symptoms, and preferences, and she will adjust methods as the work progresses.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce commuting time. Therapists can guide clients in using behavioral experiments and homework between meetings, which often fits well with virtual sessions and daily routines.
