Deidre Campen , LPCC

Deidre Campen is an LPCC counselor based in Minnesota who helps people facing grief, trauma, mood disorders, anxiety, and parenting challenges. She draws on a decade of professional practice to guide clients through caring, practical steps. Her manner is warm and interactive and she aims to treat each person with respect and sensitivity.

Clients can expect conversations that focus on daily life and real problems. Deidre uses clear strategies to manage symptoms of depression, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and worry. She also supports those dealing with anger, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and major life transitions.

Her work blends client-centered listening with evidence-based tools. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Mindfulness techniques teach simple ways to slow down and notice what’s happening in the moment.

Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused methods are used when clients want short-term change or clearer goals. Sessions often focus on practical steps you can use between meetings. Deidre avoids labels that feel stigmatizing and instead looks for what will actually help you function better each day.

She also has experience supporting people with issues connected to aging, body image, cancer, caregiving stress, eating concerns, family conflict, and loss. Conversations are tailored to the person’s needs, and plans are adjusted as progress is made.

Approaches and how they work online

Deidre commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new actions to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and breathing practices to help reduce reactivity and increase focus in daily life.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions grounded in the client's needs and goals. That means conversations are led by what matters to the person and the therapist helps guide steps forward. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process and she will work with each client to find methods that fit their situation and values.

Online therapy lets people use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit counseling into busy schedules. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when being on camera is not preferred. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins, faster follow-up, and flexible ways to keep momentum between longer sessions. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and treatment goals.
