About Deidre

Deidre Jenkins is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Nevada with 17 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem, motivation, and coping with life changes.

She supports people who are managing career strain, depression, and midlife questions. Deidre also focuses on blended family issues, communication problems, divorce and separation, and challenges after infidelity. Her work includes financial stress and women's issues that affect everyday functioning.

Deidre uses approaches that center the client's perspective. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what matters most to the person in front of her. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot thought patterns that keep problems going and to practice different ways of responding.

Motivational Interviewing is part of her toolkit for people who want help finding the momentum to change. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set short-term goals and test small, practical steps between sessions. Together these methods aim to make changes feel doable rather than overwhelming.

Sessions are straightforward conversations about current problems and next steps. Deidre helps people clarify priorities, try new behaviors, and evaluate what works. The focus is on practical strategies adults can use in daily life when managing blended household concerns and related stresses.

How her approaches translate to online work

Deidre commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters to the client so the person can clarify priorities and options. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at unhelpful thought patterns and teaches simple skills and behavioral experiments to change how people respond.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps pick methods and short-term steps that fit the client’s life and needs.

The original profile does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to schedule appointments around work or family time, support quicker check-ins when needed, and avoid travel. These practical benefits can help people in blended households fit therapy into busy routines while they address communication, co-parenting adjustments, and related stresses.
