About Deidra-Ann

Deidra-Ann Leiba Masese is an LPC with 12 years of clinical experience who focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and a wide range of interpersonal and identity-related issues.

Background and approach

She brings a compassionate, faith-informed sensibility from her roles as both therapist and pastor, meeting clients who often carry leadership responsibilities and feel the pressure of holding things together for others. Her practice attends to emotional overload, boundary challenges, unresolved grief, intimacy and attachment difficulties, and patterns like codependency and communication problems.

Clients encounter a respectful, nonjudgmental space where practical insight and reflective exploration are balanced. She blends attachment-based perspectives, client-centered listening, and evidence-informed methods to help people increase emotional resilience, clarify values, and address life transitions.

Deidra-Ann supports work on forgiveness, family of origin concerns, infidelity and jealousy, blended family issues, and other relational pain points while prioritizing steady, collaborative support that helps clients move forward with greater confidence and intention.

Approach-oriented online therapy for relationships and resilience

Deidra-Ann uses attachment-based work to explore how early relationships shape current emotional patterns and interpersonal responses; this approach helps with attachment issues, intimacy-related concerns, and recurring relational cycles. She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and develop practical strategies for managing anxiety, mood shifts, and stress-related behaviors. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) informs her work on deepening emotional bonds and addressing hurt in close relationships, offering tools to repair and strengthen connection when needed.

Deciding on an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss clients' goals, preferences, and life context and will tailor methods that feel like the best fit. Together they refine the plan as therapy progresses so techniques align with emerging needs and progress.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and communication styles. These options provide flexibility for people balancing leadership roles, caregiving, work, or travel, and make it possible to continue consistent therapeutic work from various locations.
