About Deidre

Deidre Campen is an LPCC based in Minnesota who helps people cope with grief, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She supports those facing stress, parenting challenges, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and compassion fatigue. Deidre draws on personal experience to understand everyday struggles and practical coping needs.

She brings about 10 years of professional experience as a licensed professional clinical counselor. Her style is warm and interactive, and she focuses on respect and empathy during sessions. Conversations avoid stigmatizing labels and aim to make change feel doable rather than overwhelming.

Deidre uses methods grounded in client-centered ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused work. In practice this means listening first, setting small goals, and trying exercises together that fit daily life. She adapts the plan to each person's needs instead of following a single script.

Clients can expect straightforward tools for mood, attention, and stress management. Sessions often include practical steps to improve sleep, structure days, and handle overwhelming thoughts. Deidre also supports people coping with natural or human-caused disaster and other major life disruptions by helping them regain routine and calm.

Her approach balances understanding with action. She helps people notice what is working, adjust strategies, and build skills for the moments that feel hardest. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step starts the process.

How her approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience without judgment; it helps when people need someone who accepts their story and helps them find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors together and uses practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and address unhelpful patterns in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods match the client's goals and preferences. That may mean trying a CBT skill for a few sessions, then adding mindfulness or solution-focused steps based on what feels helpful.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not listed in the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full session isn't possible. It also makes it simpler to practice skills in real-life settings and bring concrete daily challenges into the conversation. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing techniques for remote sessions so work continues between visits.
