About Deidre
Deidre Jenkins is a Nevada licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 17 years of clinical experience. She works with adults feeling stuck or uncertain and focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, intimacy concerns, self-esteem, coping with life changes, career questions, and depression. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not take international clients.
Her approach mixes straightforward conversation with practical tools. She uses Client-Centered methods to listen and reflect what matters to the client. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small experiments. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques support short-term goals and clearer next steps.
Deidre has helped people address blended family issues, communication breakdowns, divorce and separation, and infidelity. She also works with those facing midlife questions, money and workplace stress, and women’s issues. Life purpose and career reorientation are part of her practice for clients wanting more direction after a change.
In sessions she focuses on practical conversation and collaborative planning. Expect a mix of listening, feedback, and exercises aimed at real-world problems like managing anxiety or improving communication. She asks about what matters most, then helps identify small changes to test between meetings.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Deidre often uses Client-Centered Therapy online, which begins by listening closely and reflecting what matters most to the client. This approach helps people name priorities and feel understood before deciding next steps.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on method that looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. CBT techniques can help with anxiety, mood concerns, and recurring unhelpful thinking by practicing small behavioral experiments and reframing thoughts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each client to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. Together they check what works and adjust the plan as needed rather than committing to a single method from the start.
Confirm the exact session options before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - they reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join from quieter locations without arranging a commute. Discuss session length and pacing with her when scheduling to match your daily routine.
