About Untangled Minds
Life doesn’t have to stay in Hard Mode.
Untangled Minds was created from a simple belief: healing begins with understanding. I started my Podcast in 2025 when I was determined to share my story with the world, because understanding the human experience is not always easy!
When we understand how our brains work, why we’ve developed certain patterns, and what our nervous systems have been trying to protect us from, change becomes possible. Therapy isn’t about fixing what’s broken—it’s about making sense of the mess, one thread at a time.
Meet Deanna
Hi, I’m Deanna.
I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with more than a decade of experience helping people navigate life’s hardest moments. My career has taken me through child welfare, inpatient psychiatric care, crisis work, and private practice, giving me the opportunity to work with individuals and families facing trauma, grief, neurodivergence, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.
Today, my passion is helping adults who have spent years wondering why life has always felt harder than it seems for everyone else. Whether you’re navigating ADHD, autism, trauma, burnout, or simply trying to understand yourself better, my goal is to create a space where curiosity replaces shame and understanding leads to meaningful, lasting change.
I believe therapy should leave you more independent—not more dependent. My role isn’t to give you all the answers; it’s to help you build the insight, confidence, and practical tools to understand yourself long after our work together ends.
What You Can Expect
🧠 Curiosity over Judgment
We’ll explore your experiences without shame or blame. Every pattern is information.
🧶 Understanding before Change
We can’t untangle what we don’t understand. Insight comes first.
🛠 Practical over Perfect
You’ll leave with tools that fit your life and your brain—not generic advice.
🌱 Progress over Perfection
Healing isn’t linear. Small, sustainable changes create lasting transformation.
My goal isn’t to help you become someone else. It’s to help you understand yourself well enough that you can finally build a life that works with your brain instead of against it.
