About DeAnna
DeAnna Graham is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 13 years of experience.

She also supports concerns such as parenting, self-esteem, career stress, and issues affecting LGBT clients.
She uses straightforward conversation and practical problem solving. Sessions focus on identifying obstacles and finding steps that fit everyday life. DeAnna brings years of work in case management and supportive counseling to inform how she structures sessions.
Her background includes work with people facing behavioral and emotional challenges, homelessness, child abuse and neglect concerns, and crisis intervention. That experience shaped her approach to communication and organization during care. She emphasizes clear goals and actionable strategies.
DeAnna uses Client-Centered methods to listen and set priorities with each person. She also draws on cognitive behavioral tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and on mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity. These approaches are used to support changes in behavior and emotion regulation.
In sessions she helps people assess available resources and develop skills to manage anger, improve relationships, and increase confidence. She talks with clients about barriers that get in the way and works on practical steps toward more stable routines. Her aim is steady progress, not quick fixes.
People who choose to work with her should expect a direct yet respectful process that connects life challenges to clear strategies and next steps. She has a long history of supporting adults with complex needs and keeps the focus on doable change.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building goals with the person. Online sessions using this approach let clients articulate what matters most and set practical priorities for change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. In remote sessions, CBT often includes short homework, simple experiments, and step-by-step skill practice to reduce anger and anxiety.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches moment-to-moment awareness and ways to reduce reactivity. Practicing these skills between sessions can help manage impulses and lower stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That conversation guides which methods are used and how they are combined.

Many people find remote sessions helpful for keeping momentum and practicing new skills in real life situations.
