Age Range: 15+

I am a marriage and family therapist intern with a passion for helping individuals, couples, and families overcome their challenges and strengthen their relationships. I hold a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and am currently training in three evidence-based therapy modalities: Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples, and Person-Centered Therapy.
I believe that every person has the potential to create positive change in their lives and relationships. In my work, I use a client-centered approach that focuses on the individual needs and goals of each client. I am particularly skilled in working with couples and families, helping them improve communication, resolve conflicts, and build stronger connections.
In Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, I empower clients to identify and build upon their strengths, rather than focusing solely on their problems. In Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples, I help partners strengthen their emotional bonds and develop a deeper understanding of each other's needs. In Person-Centered Therapy, I create a supportive and empathetic environment where clients can explore their feelings and experiences in a safe space.
Overall, I am committed to helping my clients achieve their goals and improve their overall well-being!

Deana Kirkendall, LMFT
Issues:
- Marriage and Family Therapy
Treatment Orientation: Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the gold standard for relational/marriage therapy. I also use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Parts and Memory, Solution-Focused, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive-Behavior Therapy
Age Range: 18+ and Couples

Life can seem overwhelming and even frightening at times. Our most important relationships and life issues trigger physical, emotional, and mental responses we do not understand and cannot seem to overcome by ourselves. So many of our struggles are exacerbated by a lack of skills and knowledge, which can be obtained through effective therapy. Together, we will build upon your strengths to help you effectively approach your challenges. We will clarify your goals together and get you on the path to healing and achieving them.
I am passionate about helping people discover and build upon their unique strengths and abilities through effective therapy. I specialize in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the gold standard for relational/marriage therapy. I also use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Parts and Memory, Solution-Focused, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive-Behavior Therapy.
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I offer a judgment-free zone for people to come, be themselves, work through challenges, become who they want to be, transform their relationships, and discover their unique skills and strengths which will become the change they need and desire.
