About LaDeana
LaDeana Artis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New Jersey with 13 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, parenting, and related struggles that affect daily life.
She works in a straightforward, person-centered way. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical strategies. She combines approaches to match what a person brings to the room rather than following a single method.
Her background includes supporting people who have experienced abandonment, attachment difficulties, emotional dysregulation, and personality-related challenges. She also addresses grief, intimacy questions, body image and eating concerns, caregiver stress, and problems that surface during life changes like separation or divorce.
LaDeana uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. She adapts those tools to help with symptoms such as anxiety, low mood, anger, and problems with communication.
In sessions she helps people identify practical steps they can try between meetings. That can mean learning new ways to talk about a difficult issue, practicing a short skill for managing intense feelings, or planning small changes to support daily functioning. Her emphasis is on workable changes that fit into everyday life.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication. It can help with abandonment, trust issues, and recurring relationship patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and try different strategies until something fits. That decision is collaborative and may change as needs shift over time.
The original biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people attend from a quieter spot that suits them. Licensed professionals can still use the same behavioral skills, cognitive tools, and emotion regulation strategies in remote sessions, focusing on practical steps the client can use between meetings.
