Dr. Deandriea Bass-Carrigan, LPC

Dr. Deandriea Bass-Carrigan is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety. She invites people who feel overwhelmed to take small, practical steps toward steadier days. Her style is straightforward and supportive, aimed at helping clients regain control of their thoughts and feelings.

She has about ten years of experience in counseling, including work in career counseling and several years helping people with anxiety, burnout, stress, and depression. That background informs how she structures sessions and the tools she brings to each meeting. Sessions emphasize active partnership, where the client’s goals guide the work.

Therapy draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing. Those methods are used to build skills, adjust unhelpful thinking patterns, and strengthen coping strategies. Exercises and conversations are tailored to each person rather than a fixed protocol.

Dr. Bass-Carrigan often frames emotions like a cup that needs refilling. She helps clients identify practical ways to restore energy and reduce overwhelm. That can mean adjusting routines, practicing new coping skills, or shifting how a person talks to themselves.

People who want clear steps and a collaborative approach may find this style helpful. To begin, readers should use the site’s Start Therapy process and complete the short matching questionnaire to move toward scheduling.

How these approaches can work in online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's goals and experience at the center of sessions. The therapist listens closely and helps people name what matters most, which can guide practical steps for reducing stress or managing anxiety.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then testing new ways of thinking and acting. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood, and stress because it offers concrete tools to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is reviewed over time and adjusted as progress is made.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into a busy life, allowing shorter check-ins around work, avoiding travel time, or choosing sessions that match their comfort with video or audio. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to work well in remote sessions, while keeping the focus on practical strategies to manage stress and anxiety.
