About me

WHAT GROWTH AND CHANGE DO NOT NEED TO BE:
* painful or hard
* take months or years
* reliving all of the painful junk that you've already survived
* being formal, awkward, or uncomfortable
(newsflash: upleveling your life can actually be FUN!)
* talking about alllll of the things that are not working in your life


In fact, not only is it not necessary to talk incessantly about all of the things going wrong in your life in order to change them, I can tell you that that's exactly what we WON'T focus on in our work together.


Instead, we'll focus on where you are HEADING and the life you TRULY want to create. Then we'll get you aligned with that desire and get the gunk out of the way that is blocking you (which is just the parts of you that are trying to protect you).


HEY THERE! I'M DeANNE JOY. MY SUPERPOWER IS HELPING PEOPLE UNLEARN FEAR AND RECONNECT WITH THEIR AUTHENTIC TRUTH.


What does that look like? It looks like releasing the old beliefs, thoughts, habits, and patterns that are no longer serving you. Falling in love with those parts of you that protect you when your 'stuff' comes up. Living fully, loving deeply, and sharing your gifts in the world.


I am here to meet you where you are and support you 150% with what you want to create.


A little about me...
I'm a little bit spiritual, a TON of love and compassion, a heap of joy and FUN, mixed in with a whole lotta science, psychology, world-class tools, and no b.s. empowering accountability.


I've had a three-decade career as a:
* clinical therapist
* end-of-life and trauma social worker
* confidence & belief change coach
* women's transformation coach
* speaker
* best-selling author
* personal and leadership development facilitator


I incorporate all of my experience and expertise, using both traditional therapy models (Cognitive-Behavioral, Person-Centered, Experiential, Solution-Focused, Strengths-Based, Humanistic) as well as world-class tools for rapid, long-term change including Tapping/EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), Mindfulness, Meditation, Rapid Belief Change, NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), Hypnotherapy, and Guided Visualization, among others. I use the tools, techniques, and modalities that are most effective and most aligned with each individual client.


I believe that we all have gifts that we are meant to share in the world, and that life is too short to accept less than what we deserve and are capable of.


My gift is being a catalyst for transformation, joy, and peace on the planet. If you're willing to show up for yourself, roll up your sleeves, and do the work to reconnect with YOU, I'll be right there to guide you through it and you will undoubtedly experience great growth here.


LGBTQ+ ally, member, supporter. This is a safe space for you to explore ALL of you, authentically and unapologetically, with no limits.


WHO I AM NOT A GOOD FIT FOR:
* You are not ready or willing to roll up your sleeves and do the deep work to create the life you truly want
* You are not open to someone standing fiercely for your growth (that would be me), including compassionately yet firmly holding you to what you say you want
* You are committed to going it alone
* You are looking for someone else to do the work for you
* You want your journey to be hard, boring, or uncomfortable (in fact, if you're NOT open to having this process be FUN and LIGHT, I'm probably not the most aligned person for you to work with)


Good for you for starting by checking this out. When you're ready to say YES to you, I'm here.


Let's do this...it's your time!

DeAnne listens to me during every session and gives me the ability to learn and grow. I do truly appreciate all she has taught me to be a better person every day.

I love DeAnne and how committed she is to helping me. She offers a variety of tools for me to use and helps offer a different perspective. She is always in my corner rooting for me and helping me get better.

Written on Jun 05, 2023 after therapy with DeAnne for 6 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, lgbt, relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, and coping with life changes

DeAnne is amazing, she not only listens, but also supports, acts and involves in your life, giving feedback and offering solutions. But the main thing is that she cares! She helps to find way out of the most difficult situation. In the most critical moment I know she is there for me to help me to improve my mental state. And it really works! I am entirely grateful to her for being with me in my life! She is very professional with a great amount of experience, never had a second thought that I have chosen her.

I have just started to work with DeAnne. She has an amazing energy and is very open to my needs. I used to be afraid of therapy but she makes it a pleasant moment ! I would recommend her to anyone that needs a positive energy in their lives.

Written on May 08, 2023 after therapy with DeAnne for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, lgbt, relationship issues, family conflicts, self esteem, and career difficulties

DeAnne was extremely helpful in listening to my story once and hearing what I wasn't saying but needed to work on. She was amazing! She provided guided meditations that helped me work through past hurt and let go of it. She was amazing and I've never had a therapist as in tune as she is. If I feel the need to come back, I want to work with her again.
