About Deanna
Deanna Rasnic is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a long history helping families and parents manage stress, parenting challenges, relationship trouble, grief, anxiety, and mood concerns. She frames sessions to be practical and straightforward. Parents will find a therapist who listens, asks direct questions, and offers actionable ideas they can try at home.
She draws on 28 years in counseling, including more than a decade in independent practice and years in agency settings.
Background and approach
That background includes work around adoption and foster care, blended family issues, and parenting across different child life stages. She also has experience addressing addictions, trauma and abuse, eating and body image concerns, and other family-origin issues. In session she uses cognitive behavioral therapy, a hands-on approach that links thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
She helps people notice patterns, test new ways of thinking, and practice small changes that reduce anxiety and improve relationships. Her style is empathetic and nonjudgmental while remaining direct and practical. She offers support for common family transitions such as divorce, co-parenting, and fertility concerns, and helps clients work through attachment, abandonment, and communication problems.
Sessions tend to focus on present-day problems and the ways past hurts influence current choices. Based in Texas, Rasnic combines therapeutic experience with clear recommendations. She aims to help families get unstuck, build healthier patterns, and move forward with confidence.
How CBT and online sessions fit family life
Deanna uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors. This approach helps with anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, and parenting stress by emphasizing clear steps and practice between sessions.Her style pairs straightforward feedback with practical exercises. Together the therapist and client track patterns, set simple goals, and try new responses at home. Deciding on the best approach is collaborative - she will help figure out what methods suit the familys needs, goals, and daily routine.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations from home, phone sessions offer a flexible alternative, and live chat or text messaging provides shorter check-ins and ongoing support. These options give families more ways to connect with a licensed professional when and how it works best for them.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
