Hi there, I am Deana, LPC. I hope this page helps you get a better sense of my therapeutic style and determine whether we are a great fit.
Deana Baker, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor (she/her)
- Appointments: Telehealth only
- Manage Medications: Provides therapy and collaborates closely with our psychiatry team for medication management, available through internal referral if needed.
My therapy style is a nontraditional therapeutic approach, meeting patients where they are in the moment. I am more personable and direct, I want to relate my approach to the current life they are experiencing. During the intake, patients can expect to chat about what is most important, prioritize goals and get to know each other.
Past patients have shared that their experience increased their self awareness, self care, and self love. As well, they have noted the ability to use their coping skills on a regular basis. Patients would describe me as down to earth and a real human that is continuing to work on myself as I try to help others.
