Deanna Rasnic

Deanna Rasnic brings 28 years of counseling experience to her practice in Texas. Counseling is a calling for her - she finds it meaningful to come alongside people who are hurting or who are facing difficult seasons, guiding them through challenges and helping them regain direction in life.

She assists clients in gaining insight about themselves and others, supports them through the healing process, and uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address how past hurts affect present functioning so those memories do not hinder future progress.

Deanna approaches her work with empathy, a non-judgmental stance, and practical directness. She pairs genuine concern with clear observations and actionable recommendations, offering a safe space to sort through what is on the mind and heart. As a counselor rather than a friend or family member, she provides perspective that helps identify root concerns and the steps needed for meaningful change.

Her professional background includes more than a decade in private practice, where she provided individual, marital, adolescent, and family counseling, and extensive service in agency settings. She has worked with clients and families on issues such as marriage and divorce, blended family dynamics, coparenting after separation, parenting across life stages, boundary setting, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, spiritual concerns, decision making, addictions, and recovery from past hurts. She also has an in-depth history with the adoption process, offering pre- and post-placement counseling for birth parents, adoptive couples, and adopted children.

Deanna is a Texas-licensed professional counselor and holds credentials to supervise other counselors as well as a license to place children for adoption. Her academic training includes a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Counseling, a Master of Arts in Religious Education, and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology.
