About Deana

Deana Hartshorn is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in Colorado and Texas with 11 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress and anxiety, relationship challenges, low motivation, self-esteem and confidence concerns, and depression, drawing on practical therapy techniques to support change.

Hartshorn incorporates the ABC model of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) as part of her approach. REBT helps clients identify self-defeating thoughts and feelings, examine irrational or unhelpful beliefs, and replace them with healthier, more productive ways of thinking and behaving. This focus on thought patterns supports work on mood, coping, and decision-making.

She places emphasis on respect, sensitivity, and compassion in the therapeutic relationship, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to the unique needs of each person. Hartshorn recognizes that beginning therapy can take courage and expresses pride in clients who take that step toward change. Her practice aims to meet each client where they are and support practical, sustainable progress.

Approaches that guide online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and creating a respectful space where clients lead the pace and content of sessions. It supports work on self-esteem, relationship concerns, life purpose, and emotional adjustment by prioritizing the client’s perspective.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to stress, anxiety, and depression. It uses practical strategies to test and change unhelpful thinking and develop new coping skills for everyday challenges.

Narrative Therapy helps people examine the stories they tell about their lives and consider alternate meanings and possibilities. This approach can be useful for addressing issues like identity, feelings of emptiness, and transitions such as divorce or midlife change.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to explore which methods fit best with their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring, and may adapt techniques over time as needs evolve.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and reach licensed professionals from different locations. These options can increase access to consistent support while allowing clients to choose the format that feels most comfortable for them.
