Deidre Campen

Deidre Campen is a licensed professional clinical counselor practicing in Minnesota. She focuses on concerns such as anger, stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and ADHD. Deidre writes plainly and meets people where they are when life becomes hard to manage.

She brings ten years of documented experience as an LPCC and draws on a mix of practical methods. Sessions tend to be warm and interactive, with an emphasis on respectful, nonjudgmental conversation. Deidre aims to tailor each meeting to the person’s needs rather than use a one-size-fits-all plan.

Her work often combines client-centered ideas with cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness practices. She helps people name patterns, try small experiments, and build clearer routines to reduce daily stress. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques are added when someone wants concrete short-term goals.

Parents and people managing attention differences may find this approach useful because Deidre speaks from both professional and lived experience with ADHD. She also has long experience supporting those facing bereavement and caring roles, and she understands how grief and caregiver stress can complicate everyday functioning.

Deidre encourages a collaborative process where the person’s goals shape the work. She focuses on practical steps that fit into real life, helping people manage emotions, rebuild confidence, and find steadier footing after loss, trauma, or major life change.

Approaches that translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s experience and builds sessions around what matters most to them. It helps people feel heard, clarify goals, and decide what changes to try. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses short experiments to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and daily life. That means testing what helps, adjusting plans, and focusing on small, useful changes rather than a fixed method.

Confirm the available online session options before booking so you know how appointments are delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. For many people, video or phone sessions let them continue steady work on anger, stress, grief, and ADHD-related challenges while keeping therapy manageable alongside other responsibilities.
