Deanna Hudgins
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
“I strive to blend the principles of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) with an eclectic approach rooted in equity, compassion, and respect for each individual’s unique life experience.”
About Me
I help individuals and families navigate life's complexities, blending Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) with an eclectic approach. My aim is to create a space of genuine equity and compassion, where your unique experiences are deeply respected. We can explore practical tools from DBT, alongside flexible strategies tailored just for you. This supports those seeking both structure and a truly personalised understanding in therapy.
Approach
I center each session on practical skills and careful listening, pairing structured coaching with flexible problem-solving so your priorities shape our work. Whether meeting in my Los Angeles office or via secure video, sessions move at a steady, collaborative pace—short skill practices, reflective check-ins, and family or couple dialogue when helpful. Between sessions I offer small experiments and brief skill prompts to bridge insight and everyday change. People juggling relationships, growth, or parenting often find this focused, compassionate rhythm helps them make steady progress.
