CBT-Based Care and Online Options for Contemporary Challenges

Deanna Rasnic uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a central part of her approach. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, teaching practical skills that can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and improve daily functioning and relationships.

She also places emphasis on addressing past hurts as they affect present life. This work helps clients understand patterns that began earlier in life - including issues related to adoption, attachment, and family of origin - and develop healthier ways of relating and coping in the present.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Deanna works with clients to identify goals, explore preferences, and tailor interventions so therapy fits each person’s needs. Online therapy provides flexibility to pursue that work through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to access consistent support around busy schedules and from different locations. Licensed professionals can deliver meaningful, skills-focused care through these modalities, helping clients make steady progress without the constraints of in-person appointments.
