About LaDeana

LaDeana Artis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 13 years of clinical experience. She practices from New Jersey and works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. She speaks English and draws on a range of common approaches to help people find workable change.

LaDeana favors a person-centered way of working that begins where someone is, not where she thinks they should be. Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual and on practical steps that can be tried between meetings.

Background and approach

She uses skills from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help manage strong emotions and unhelpful thoughts. Attachment-based ideas and Emotionally-Focused Therapy are part of her approach when relationship patterns and closeness are at issue. That can look like mapping how past losses and attachment needs shape current reactions, and practicing new ways of relating.

She also works with concerns such as grief, addiction, body image, parenting strain, and career stress. LaDeana blends listening with concrete tools so people can notice small shifts fast. She aims to make sessions feel practical and hopeful rather than overwhelming.

People who want a collaborative therapist who helps set clear, reachable goals may find her style fits well. Background includes long experience in outpatient mental health settings and a focus on trauma, emotional dysregulation, and complex life changes. LaDeana holds the LCSW credential and draws on multiple methods to tailor care to each person.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people understand how emotions shape their relationships and how new emotional responses can improve closeness and trust. It is often used when patterns of connection and disconnection cause repeated conflict or loneliness.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without being ruled by them, then choosing values-driven action. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, and getting unstuck when changes feel overwhelming.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds and losses influence current reactions and relationship patterns. It can be useful when abandonment, attachment wounds, or caregiving stress affect how someone relates to others.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a shared process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay aligned with their needs.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences. Video allows fuller conversation when face-to-face feel matters, phone can work on low bandwidth or for quick check-ins, and chat or text can be useful for brief updates or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and maintain progress around busy lives.
