Shane Dumm

Therapist

Virtual • Ohio


  • I’m in your corner. I’m not here to judge, fix, or control. I’m here to understand, challenge when needed, and help you grow.
  • I will tell the truth. Kindly, clearly, and without fluff. Progress requires honesty.
  • I value structure and clarity. We will set goals. We will measure movement. We won’t just “vent and vibe.”
  • I integrate evidence-based approaches. I lean heavily on CBT and Motivational Interviewing, with EMDR techniques when appropriate. Therapy with me is practical and action-oriented.
  • I respect faith. If spirituality matters to you, we can thoughtfully integrate it. If not, we won’t force it.
  • I believe people are more resilient than they think. My job is to help you access what’s already there.
  • I hold both accountability and compassion. Growth happens in that tension.
  • I’m human. I don’t claim perfection. I show up present, prepared, and fully invested in your development.

Dr. Deirdre Adduci

Dr. Deirdre Adduci

Therapist

Virtual • Ohio


Hi, my name is Dr. Deirdre Adduci and I believe that when two people work together, we can achieve great things and that together we can become a team that is able to assess and achieve your goals. Sometimes life can be difficult and it can be challenging, but I do believe that teamwork helps to improve our outlook and also to strategize ways to move forward. At times, people will tell me that they feel stuck, but often times this is merely because working alone we may not be able to see all of our options and possible solutions. I do believe that there are solutions that we haven’t even yet. We can do that together. I received my undergraduate education at The Ohio State University, where I studied criminology, my masters degree and counseling from Youngstown State University and my PhD from The University of Akron. I have my independent license in Counseling(LPCC-S),Marriage and Family Counseling (LIMFT), my independent license, my independent license in Chemical Dependency Counseling (LICDC-S) and a license and social work (LSW). I always tell my clients that I could not do what I do if I did not so passionately believe that counseling truly works. Your best thinking got you here looking at our profiles and I am really proud that you have step. I hope to work with you and become part of your team.
