DeAnn Back

LPC, NCC

Healing begins when we feel safe, seen, and supported. We all long to feel understood especially in difficult seasons. My goal is to offer a caring space where you are not left to carry life’s challenges on your own.


I’m here to support individuals and couples as they heal from past hurts and navigate the changes life brings. My work focuses on helping people who are facing anxiety, depression, grief, or self-worth struggles, and guiding couples who want to strengthen or repair their connection.


I also offer premarital counseling to help couples build a strong foundation for marriage. Through the “Take My Hand” program and the Prepare & Enrich course, I guide couples through meaningful conversations and practical tools that prepare them for a thriving future together.


About My Training

Following my Master of Arts in Counseling, I deepened my work by training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Rooted in attachment and emotional connection, EFT supports people in creating the secure, loving bonds we all long for. This approach shapes the way I show up with my clients.


  • Trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), having completed an ICEEFT-endorsed Externship and Core Skills 1 & 2 and 3 &4.
  • Trained in Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), which focuses on helping individuals with emotional processing and the creation of secure relationships with self and others.
  • Certified in Prepare/Enrich, a research-based tool that equips couples with practical skills and insights to strengthen their relationship
