My Approach to Therapy

As someone who has worked to understand my own identity and personal mental health challenges, I understand how important it can be to seek support that helps improve your quality of life. Deanna Ball is a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor, with over 20 years of experience. She is passionate about working with the LGBTQ+ community, as well as addiction-related issues. She is a sex therapist, as well as an anger resolution therapist. Deanna specializes in depression, grief, sexual health, LGBTQ+ issues, and substance abuse (addiction) concerns.

My Practice & Services

Deanna has two master’s degrees from Grand Canyon University, one in professional counseling and the other in addiction counseling. She is currently attending the University of Metaphysical Science. She earned her bachelor’s in metaphysics, has recently submitted her master’s thesis, and will soon be awarded her Master of Metaphysical Science degree. After that, she plans to pursue her PhD in metaphysical science. Deanna’s background in addiction has shaped her to be more direct and assertive in her approach. She doesn’t hold back when giving feedback. Many clients say they appreciate that she’s direct and tells it like she sees it. She won’t hold your hand, but she will walk beside you. Many counselors do not have an addiction counseling specialty, and several clients do not realize the effects addiction has had in their life, especially if they were raised in that environment and have no issues with drugs or alcohol personally. If you have been affected by addiction, please reach out.
