About Deidere
Deidere Hollins is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Mississippi with 13 years of experience. She works with people dealing with anger, stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges like low self-esteem and major life changes. She also supports those managing attention and focus difficulties related to ADHD.
Her approach is straightforward. She uses client-centered work to listen first, then brings in practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused methods. Sessions focus on what feels most useful to the person in front of her. Conversations move from identifying patterns to trying small, concrete changes.
Deidere emphasizes building trust so people can speak honestly about what angers them and what gets in the way of calmer responses. She talks through typical triggers, the thoughts that follow, and the behaviors that cause regret. Together with clients she develops simple strategies to respond differently in heated moments.
She also addresses related areas like relationships, parenting stress, work frustrations, and career worries. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone needs help clarifying goals and staying committed to change. The goal is practical progress rather than abstract ideas.
Clients can expect direct, plain talk and step-by-step planning. Deidere asks questions, reflects what she hears, and helps map out realistic next steps. If you want to reduce angry outbursts or steady daily irritability, she helps people plan manageable ways to do that.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Deidere commonly draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels heard and can name what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns.She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify goals and find their reasons for change. That approach is conversational and goal-oriented, useful when someone is unsure how to begin or stay committed. Deciding which mix of approaches to use is a team effort; she helps clients try methods and adjusts based on what works for their situation.
If you are considering online work, confirm the session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific options. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Online work also lets clients use tools like worksheets and thought logs between meetings. She will collaborate with each person to shape sessions so the work fits their goals and daily routine.
