About Deirdre
Deirdre Owens is a Nevada-licensed therapist who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, family challenges, and self-esteem concerns. She emphasizes respectful, sensitive, and compassionate care, and works with clients to create treatment plans tailored to each person’s circumstances and goals.
Background and approach
With five years of clinical experience and an LCPC credential, she draws on evidence-based methods to address mood disorders, panic and social anxiety, attachment concerns, and communication or blended family difficulties. Her style centers on collaboration; she listens closely to understand what matters most to each client and adapts interventions to match those needs.
Deirdre integrates several therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), to help clients build coping skills, reframe unhelpful patterns, and work toward clearer life purpose and self-compassion. She encourages clients to recognize that pursuing change takes courage and offers steady support through that process.
Online approaches that guide therapy and healing
Deirdre commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; this practical approach is often applied to anxiety, depression, panic, and social fears. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which emphasizes values-based action and learning to live with difficult thoughts or feelings rather than trying to eliminate them, making it useful for chronic stress, persistent worry, and life purpose work. Attachment-Based Therapy is another influence, focusing on how early and current relationship patterns shape emotional responses and communication, which can support work on family dynamics and attachment concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. She collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their goals and preferences, adjusting techniques as trust grows and needs evolve. This collaborative stance helps clients feel involved in choosing tools and strategies that fit their lives.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These formats allow clients to engage from different locations and schedules while maintaining continuity of care, and they make it easier to try shorter check-ins or more traditional session lengths depending on what best supports progress.
