Deena cares and it is very evident with the way she listens and focuses on what I have to say. I truly appreciate that. She seems very experienced in her field of work and I hope to get a lot out of our appointments. I have only met with her twice, but feel like we jumped in head first together on working on my goals. I like her direct approach very much.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

She seems very experienced in her field of work and I hope to get a lot out of our appointments. I have only met with her twice, but feel like we jumped in head first together on working on my goals.

Deena has always supported me and been my fan. Asking questions when needed and listening intently to discover more about me. I appreciate her so much!
I've had 2 sessions so far, and Deena has said a few things that has really resonated as far as hearing me speak and how my emotions unfold in my life. She pin pointed and made an assumption that was 100% me. It feels good to only have spoken a few times and having her see how I am as a person. Looking foward to working with Deena
It’s been a good experience so far!! I feel therapy is going to be helpful for me. Deanna has offered flexibility to me, as well, which is important at this current stage of my life.
Deena is a great therapist she really cares about her clients
Deena is a competent and compassionate therapist. She has been very helpful.
I love working with Deena because she is both incredibly supportive and also flexible. She allows me to guide our conversations but when the going gets tough she is willing to ask me some harder questions. Deena is very good at helping me set boundaries, something I've been wanting to work on. I also very much appreciate that she is always on time, very present for our sessions, and just in general very reliable.
She’s so kind and understanding and just all around makes me feel at ease and open to talking! The progress I’ve made since seeing Deena is more than I could have expected.
Deena is amazing. I've never worked with a better counselor. She listens very carefully and recalls information weeks later. She's very good at her job and I'm extremely thankful for her expertise. She is definitely making a difference in my life for the better.
Starting therapy with Deena has been life changing. Digging into past issues I would sweep under the rug, and not truly deal with issues-she has helped guide me into more healthy coping way!
From the first appointment I had a lot of respect for Deena immediately. It was apparent that she listens and cares for her clients right away.
Deena makes me feel very comfortable. I was very nervous. But, now I can talk to her with no problem.
I have tried counseling before without success. I lacked a connection with a therapist that made me want to share who I was and my issues. Better Healths program is set up for success with different ways to express yourself. Deanna does an excellent job responding, listening, and really getting to know you. She does not judge, but tries to find out ways to help you in your day to day. She wants her clients to succeed and be happy!
Great listener! Gives great tips as well for coping!
