Deanna Rasnic, LPC

Deanna Rasnic, LPC, helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, and other life disruptions. She has 28 years of experience and listens with empathy while offering clear, practical guidance. Many people come to her when past hurts make the present harder to manage, or when they need a path forward after loss or major change.

Deanna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which means she helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. She focuses on how past experiences affect current feelings and actions. Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented, with steps people can use between meetings.

She describes her approach as direct, honest, and non-judgmental. Clients can expect a caring listener who also offers concrete recommendations and feedback. That mix aims to help people find clarity and make steady progress toward their goals.

Her background includes long experience in both independent practice and agency work. She has worked with individuals dealing with adoption and foster care questions, blended family issues, parenting challenges, addictions, and grief. That history shapes how she approaches family of origin concerns and attachment-related struggles.

Deanna holds a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Counseling and a Master of Arts in Religious Education from Southwestern Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas and has provided counseling across a wide range of life issues over nearly three decades.

How CBT and Online Care Work Together

Deanna uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. CBT focuses on practical steps people can test between sessions to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or change patterns that harm relationships. This approach is often used for stress, depression, anxiety, eating concerns, and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Deanna will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit their situation. She works collaboratively to adjust strategies over time so the work stays relevant and useful.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy lives or limited local options.

Before starting online therapy, confirm the current session options, scheduling arrangements, and fees. Discuss what will help you take part comfortably and how to fit appointments around everyday commitments. Agree on the next steps with the therapist so you know what to expect.
