Deandra Hennemann, LMHC

Deandra Hennemann is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 12 years of experience based in Florida. She focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, relationship struggles, and work-related issues. Deandra uses an open, respectful style and keeps sessions interactive so people can speak plainly about what matters to them.

Her work often addresses trauma, domestic violence, and addiction, along with concerns such as attachment issues, codependency, and coping with life changes. She pays attention to how shame, guilt, and cultural pressures shape a person’s choices and sense of self.

In sessions she combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral tools to help people spot patterns and try different responses. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy and EMDR when trauma or intense relationship patterns are central. The aim is practical change: clearer thinking, more effective coping, and steadier emotions.

Deandra describes her manner as warm and interactive. She avoids stigmatizing labels and treats people with respect and sensitivity. Together she and the client build a plan that fits routines, goals, and personal values.

She offers work in English and accepts international clients. People typically begin by sharing the problem that brought them to therapy and then testing small steps between sessions. That steady, collaborative approach guides progress over time.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Deandra uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Client-Centered Therapy gives space for people to tell their story while feeling heard, which is helpful for building trust and exploring values. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps when relationship patterns and strong emotions are central, guiding partners or individuals to recognize and shift interaction cycles.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk through goals and preferences, then try methods that fit a person’s needs. Progress is reviewed together and adjustments are made as needed so the plan matches real life and real constraints.

Online therapy offers multiple ways to connect: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth or camera use is difficult, live chat for quick check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, parenting, or travel and let people pick the format that helps them stay consistent with therapy.
