Deidre Williams

Hello, my name is Deidre Williams, and I’m honored you’re considering me as your therapist. My mission is to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore challenges, uncover strengths, and move toward meaningful change. I take a collaborative and individualized approach to therapy, with a strong emphasis on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a proven method to help clients understand and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is the foundation of my work because of its practical, goal-oriented nature—it empowers you to actively participate in your own healing and fosters long-term resilience. Depending on your needs, I also integrate techniques from Solution-Focused Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy, providing a well-rounded, holistic experience that supports your mental health and overall well-being. You’re in the right place if you’re seeking a warm, non-judgmental therapist who will tailor each session to your unique circumstances. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions, my goal is to help you develop effective tools and insights for a more balanced, empowered life. A bit about my background: I bring a diverse professional history to my practice, having worked as a teacher, school counselor, and therapist in private practice. I’ve supported adolescents and adults through various stages of life. As the former lead crisis counselor for a large school district, I developed deep expertise in mental health support. Additionally, I maintain strong connections with local organizations to help bridge clients to services beyond therapy—because healing often involves a community of care. I truly believe that emotional struggles are a normal part of being human. My passion lies in helping people reduce psychic distress and restore a sense of calm, clarity, and confidence. When life throws its inevitable curve balls—whether from grief, transition, or personal growth—you don’t have to face it alone. I’m here to listen, guide, and support you.
