I am a Licensed Professional Counselor whose career journey spans over 20 yrs. I hold a Master’s Degree in Christian Counseling from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary in Charlotte, NC and earned my Bachelor's Degree from St. Louis University. My unique training and education allow me to practice clinically while integrating spiritual aspects if the client chooses to do so. I hold a Certificate in Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health from Troy University and am also a Certified Gottman Seven Principles Workshop Facilitator, which allows me to enhance the quality of relationships for my clients.

My clinical experience includes working with individuals, couples, families, children/adolescents, victims of sexual assault and domestic violence and group facilitation. Throughout my profession I have worked in a community mental health agency setting, private practice, crisis center, rehabilitation facility and serving parishioners at a church. I specialize in anxiety, anger management, depression, relationships and low self-esteem.

Therapist

For 30 years, I've been in the room with people who were tired of the same cycles — anxious, overwhelmed, stuck in grief, or strained in their closest relationships — and wanted something to actually change. I'm an LPC licensed in Alabama offering telehealth sessions, and I work with individuals, families, and adolescents on a wide range of life challenges. What you'll get with me is straightforward: an experienced counselor who is direct without being cold, solution-focused without being dismissive of what you've been through, and genuinely invested in helping you build tools that last.

Dr. Deonka Winn

Therapist

Virtual • Alabama


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate in Social Work, and I bring both clinical expertise and real life understanding into the therapy space. My professional background includes years of direct clinical practice as well as leadership roles in complex, high stress systems, including serving as a Mental Health Director. These experiences have shaped my ability to support individuals who are navigating pressure, responsibility, and emotional overwhelm while still being expected to function at a high level.

I work best with clients who are strong on the outside but struggling internally. Many of the people I support are women, mothers, professionals, caregivers, and helpers who are used to showing up for others while neglecting their own emotional needs. I have a particular passion for working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, burnout, life transitions, relationship stress, identity concerns, and trauma related to past or ongoing stressors.

Therapy with me is not about having all the answers. It is about learning how to trust yourself, set healthy boundaries, and show up for your life with more compassion and confidence.
