01About Deirdre
Deirdre Owens greets people gently and focuses on practical steps they can use right away. She aims to make conversations clear and manageable, so clients can tackle stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and low self-esteem without feeling overwhelmed. Deirdre holds an LCPC, which is the Nevada licensed clinical professional counselor credential she lists, and she brings five years of clinical experience to sessions.
She tailors sessions to each person's needs and listens for what matters most.
Background and approach
Sessions often center on building skills for handling panic, social anxiety, or mood challenges and improving how people communicate in blended family situations. She also supports those coping with chronic illness, attachment concerns, or feelings of guilt and shame. Deirdre draws from several therapy styles to fit each client.
She uses cognitive behavioral strategies to spot patterns that keep problems going. She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people act on their values even when emotions are strong. Her approach stays person-focused and collaborative.
Clients can expect a respectful, straightforward dialogue and practical tools to try between sessions. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes. Deirdre provides sessions in English and works with people in Nevada.
She adapts methods when issues involve multicultural concerns, personality patterns, or self-harm thoughts, always centering on safety and clear planning.

04Online support
Online approaches that focus on values and skills
Deirdre uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and still move toward what matters. ACT is about choosing small actions that match values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and finding life purpose.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test them with real-life experiments. CBT provides concrete tools for panic attacks, social anxiety, and mood changes by teaching new ways to respond to triggers.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to focus more on acceptance work, cognitive skills, or a mix of methods based on progress and comfort.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets people work face to face when that helps, while phone or text can fit a short check-in or a low-bandwidth option. Live chat or messaging can support ongoing practice between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or health limitations, while allowing the same goal-focused approaches to be used remotely.
