About Us
At MIM Therapy, we believe everyone deserves a safe, supportive space where healing can begin.
No topic is ever off the table, and every individual is welcomed with compassion and understanding.
With over a decade of collective experience in therapy and mental health support, our team has worked closely with individuals and families from diverse cultural and economic backgrounds. We’ve helped clients navigate a wide range of challenges, including substance use, mental health disorders, child protective service involvement, chronic illness, cancer diagnoses, grief after the loss of a child, relationship struggles, women’s issues, sexual trauma, domestic violence, and the emotional impact of end-of-life concerns.
Our approach is shaped by clinical expertise, real-world experience, and a deep commitment to emotional wellness. We are passionate about creating a therapeutic space where your story is at the center of our work together.
Each session is thoughtfully tailored to meet you where you are — offering personalized care, evidence-based techniques, and a path toward lasting healing and resilience.
At MIM Therapy, you are never alone on your journey.
Healing, growth, and connection are always possible — and it all starts with being heard.

With seven years of experience in the addiction field, Deanna, LPC-Associate—under the supervision of Kathleen Wallace, PhD, LPC-S began asking what is going on before the addiction, can we address the underlying set of experiences to aid in recovery not knowing at the time these questions would lead to changes in her worldview and its structure. Deanna brings a compassionate and trauma-informed approach to therapy. Specializing in working with individuals who have experienced childhood trauma, she integrates mindfulness-based practices, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Gestalt therapy, and somatic therapy to support holistic healing. By helping clients reconnect with their inner selves and process unresolved experiences, her work empowers individuals to move beyond survival and step into the fulfilling, authentic life they deserve.
This work is part of a second career, following a previous profession as a librarian—a role that deeply shaped a love for learning and a respect for each individual's unique story. Drawing on a foundation of rigorous, data-driven research, her therapeutic approach is both evidence-based and delivered with empathy and compassion. Deanna believes that clients are the true experts of their own lives and experiences. With that in mind, her role is to walk alongside each person, offering tools and insights that support the development of a personal path toward healing and growth—one that can be carried forward throughout life.
