About Delissa
She encourages clear personal boundaries and helps clients practice them in daily life. Delissa often works on sorting past hurts so people can find hope and clearer thinking. She emphasizes that feelings matter but are not always facts, and she helps clients use that distinction to make different decisions.
Her practice reflects a holistic, Christian-informed approach. She frames therapy as a cooperative effort where the client sets goals and she guides the process. Conversations and treatment plans are adapted to each person’s particular needs and values.
Delissa trained in religious education at Mississippi College and holds a Master of Science in Education with an emphasis on counseling from the University of Southern Mississippi. She uses this background to support practical steps toward change and to honor clients’ beliefs during treatment.
People who seek her help can expect a blend of listening, challenge, and skill-building. Sessions emphasize boundary-setting, coping strategies, and finding ways to restore daily routines and purpose. The focus is on realistic steps that fit each person’s life.

How her approaches shape online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person’s perspective and responding with empathy. It helps people feel heard and supports self-directed goals and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, stress, and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Delissa will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit best for their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors sessions so the therapy plan reflects what the client wants to achieve.
Session-format details are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow regular check-ins between other responsibilities. Some formats also make it easier to have a shorter phone check-in or to avoid being on camera when needed. Ask about the available session types and scheduling to find a setup that works with daily routines.
