About Deanna
Deanna Butera is a New York licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 10 years of professional experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and issues around self-esteem and ADHD.
She works in a straightforward, conversational manner. Sessions focus on naming problems, tracking patterns, and finding practical steps that fit daily life. Conversations are meant to help a person make choices that feel manageable rather than overwhelming.
In practice she draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood difficulties, panic and social anxiety, and body image concerns. Work can include learning tools to steady intense feelings, practicing ways to communicate needs in relationships, and addressing past hurts that continue to affect daily functioning.
She also helps people tackle control issues, forgiveness, and self-love as practical goals. Therapy often moves between understanding how past experiences shape current reactions and trying out small behavior changes to shift those reactions.
Clients will find a focus on realistic steps and concrete skills alongside space to talk through painful memories. The first sessions tend to clarify priorities and set practical goals. To begin, the process includes completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling an initial session.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to focus on symptoms and behaviors that cause the most disruption. For example, skills-based approaches teach concrete tools for managing anxiety, panic attacks, and mood swings - breathing, grounding, and brief behavioral experiments to reduce intense reactions. Trauma-focused methods help people make sense of painful past events and reduce the ways those memories drive current responses.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist reviews a person’s goals, symptoms, and preferences and then collaborates on which methods to try first. Adjustments are made as progress is observed or when a different method might provide better leverage for the person’s goals.
