About Deana

Deana Thuer is a licensed mental health practitioner in Nebraska with three years of clinical experience. She draws on practical tools and direct conversation to help people who are feeling stuck or overwhelmed. Deana keeps sessions straightforward and sometimes uses blunt honesty along with validation to help people move forward.

She works with stress and anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and problems with self-esteem and motivation. Deana also supports people managing bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and substance-related concerns, and addresses issues like abandonment, attachment wounds, codependency, and isolation.

Background and approach

Her main approaches include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, with additional use of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and parts work when helpful. In sessions she focuses on practical skills, emotional regulation, and processing difficult memories in ways that fit each person.

Deana aims to create a space where people feel heard and also challenged to try new strategies. She describes her style as validating but direct, and she can be frank and irreverent when that helps a person break out of old patterns. People meet with Deana for short-term work on a problem or for longer-term healing, depending on goals.

Her practice uses video, phone, live chat, and text messaging to make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.

Online support

Approaches that guide online work and how they help

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationships shape current connections and emotional reactions. It helps people recognize patterns in close relationships and try new ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical skills to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking meaningful action. It can help with anxiety, stress, and motivation. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clear interpersonal skills to reduce conflict and intense emotional reactions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about current problems, goals, and preferences and then try techniques that fit those priorities. Over time they adjust the plan based on what helps most, mixing approaches like ACT, EMDR, or DBT as needed.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging offer brief, on-the-go contact and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on practical progress and emotional healing.
