Work with Deena Baty (LMSW) - BetterHelp Online Therapist

Deena has been a gift during the last year. She has a unique perspective and her guidance got me through the worst of the COVID pandemic, moving hundreds of miles, and changing careers. Her support and consistency have been wonderful, and given me more insight into myself. I would highly recommend Deena as a therapist.

Deena has been my therapist through Better Help for a few years, now. She has helped me through my final narcissistically abusive ex, and nervous breakdown from C-PTSD. As well as being my support and sounding board while taking care of my head injured Mum for a few years. Through the Pandemic, my Mum's failing health, and eventul hospice care of my Mother, ending with her recent death.
Deena asks good questions, and helps in so many different ways. When I was dealing with narcissistic abuse, and in the worst place mentally I had ever been, she knew how to talk to me so I would listen.
Her experience with end of life care made her able to completely empathize, and understand what I was dealing with. She continues to be patient when I miss appointments, and is one of the reasons I am a sane and functional human, in the midst of parent death, with an angry 19 year old, as I take care of an 18 month old, and my aging Dad. I highly recommend her. She will be able to help, no matter what you may be dealing with.

Deena Baty is a terrific counselor. I have learned a lot about myself with her guidance and advice. I feel like I can take charge of those aspects of my personality--specifically, my inner critic and issues I have with shame and guilt--that are hindering my development and contributing to my depression and anxiety. Deena not only listens with an open mind but also gives me the tools I can use to recognize and deal with my problems. Wonderful therapist.

My favorite part of therapy with Deena is that she listens, never judges, and give me solutions to help me sort out my own problems. It's like, I'm such a mess I couldn't figure out where to start. It's been a great help to resolve problems/behaviors that I didn't know I had.

After even just one session, Deena has already shown me more guidance and help than I've been able to receive in a year of trying to figure things out on my own. She's kind, receptive, and always makes sure you're comfortable with what you're sharing. I would recommend her to anyone.

Super-duper friendly human being! Incredibly kind, and puts in the extra work. For example, I don't do super well with speaking to people, mostly with sharing how I'm really feeling, so Deena suggested we do a texting session through the BetterHelp app!

Deena has been real. As in real with the person she is. Her schedule and what her desire for helping others has done for her in her life. I’m excited to keep counseling. I hope I get a lot from this next session. Our first session was great and I definitely am glad I was matched with her. There is a reason for everything. She makes the reasoning shine brighter and make more sense thank you.
